In our team, I’m the one who…
Listens to music all day long! I need a soundtrack while I work: if it’s too quiet, I can’t focus.

Outside work, I’m often…
In my own bubble! Hiking, cycling, painting or taking pictures in a field of flowers… All of these are occasions to escape from it all!

If I was an animal from the maritime regions of Québec, I’d be…
A northern gannet… I’m as wacky as these birds look! They also have blue eyes like I do.

I’m also known as…
Eagle Eye! I’m often told that I see things that others don’t. Or maybe it’s just that I have good glasses! 😎

One day I’ll visit…
Antarctica… I’m fascinated by territories at the edge of the world (such as North Cape in Norway, which I’ve already visited). Since I’m very aware of environmental and climate issues, I dream of discovering this destination in order to (finally) be able to see the fragility of this habitat for myself.

In my suitcase, you’ll always find…
My tablet! I never leave home without it, no matter where I’m going. It’s my reference point and compass when I’m far away from home.

One of my favourite parts of the maritime regions of Québec is…
Islands… More specifically Île aux Lièvres (Hare Island) in Bas-Saint-Laurent. For me, this island is a place filled with purity, peace and a sense of timelessness. To add to it all, hares will appear and keep you company at sunset. What more could you ask for?

I confess, I really love…
Wine (with a capital W)! I come by it honestly since my roots are Alsatian! 😊
