Business outcome driven, marketing technologist with over 20 years of experience working across videoconferencing, AV integration, IT managed services, cloud and hosting, IPTV, digital signage, and digital audience engagement. 

Born and raised in Montreal, I am a dynamic digital signage consultant with over 16 years of experience in the digital signage software industry, most recently serving as the Global Director of Marketing for Navori Labs. My extensive background encompasses technical pre-sales, product management, software project management, and marketing leadership, showcasing my relentless pursuit of knowledge and commitment to excellence. This marks the beginning of my next career chapter as an independent digital signage consultant. I invite you to reach out to me at any time.

As AVIXA's manager of editorial content, I bring to the role fifteen years of marketing experience and ten working predominantly in editorial and video content. I've spent many years in the entertainment industry working for Nickelodeon, Lucasfilm, Disney, and even a small theater in the heart of Florence, Italy. I love great stories and finding the right way to tell them. I am also a stop-motion animation aficionado who makes puppets and writes books. And if you have a food-related AV story, I'd love to hear it!
