Speaking with heart, humour and humanity

I’m a Montreal-based speaker, columnist, and communications strategist who loves bringing people together through stories that make meaning.​

​

I bring curiosity and connection to every conversation to help audiences explore how leadership, family, identity, and culture shape our everyday lives.

​

As a columnist for The Montreal Gazette and a strategist for social impact organizations, I spend my days navigating how stories shape culture and how communication builds community.

​

The topics I lead and contribute to often explore how leadership meets lived experience, how politics and culture shape family life, and how honest communication helps us build stronger relationships and more resilient communities.

 

If you're looking for a keynote speaker, panellist, or event moderator who can make complex ideas relatable (and maybe get the room laughing along the way), you're in the right place. I speak at conferences, leadership retreats, workplace summits, parent groups, and storytelling events across Canada and the U.S.

Signature Topics

Leadership & Work​

Workplace communication, leadership clarity, and team culture.

​

Workplaces are where purpose meets pressure — and communication often determines which one wins. In these sessions, I help leaders and teams navigate relationships, change, and culture with clarity and humanity.

​

  • What’s L.O.V.E. Got to Do With It?
    Managing difficult relationships at work without losing your cool or your confidence.

​

  • Business & Becoming
    Lessons from failure and how to grow when your plan doesn’t.

​

  • Message Strategy
    How to lead meaningful change through clear, consistent storytelling.

​

Culture & Family

Parenting, public systems, emotional labour, and identity in modern life.

​

Our homes and workplaces are reflections of the systems we live in. These conversations explore how politics, culture, and everyday choices shape how we manage our lives and how we show up for one another.

​

  • Politics at Home
    How public systems shape family life — and why it matters today.

​

  • Public Narratives & Personal Responsibility
    The values we model through everyday choices.

​
