Actors in the making!
So happy to be reunited with my main man Steeven Laing on a UDA film set today! Some think about their dreams, some realize them. Let’s root for each other and watch each other grow!

Good news: I just signed a contract with a new casting agent. Background extra work officially continues! When people believe & support you, why stop?

Yet again on TV!
Taken from S4E15 of Tournée Générale filmed in Ottawa with guests Florence K and Coco Belliveau.
They break down the taboos around mental health; it’s oddly very connected with what I’ve been going through lately. Life is funny like that sometimes! Yet again another great TV experience!
Here we go! We’re back in action; starting the year in beauty with an ACTRA film shooting in Montreal. I have butterflies in my stomach, yet I feel right at home! Let’s keep it up!
This is going to be my last post on Tumblr this year, but I just wanted to share something with you all in case anyone is interested. I’ve dedicated a big part of my life to acting this year and I didn’t want it to go unnoticed.
I’ve compiled a list of all the films, TV series, documentaries and talk shows I’ve participated in since November 2020. Most of these will come out next year or are already out; I didn’t bother to check if I appeared in any of them (you tell me!). If you want the exact number, that’s 37 days of filming for 13 films, 8 TV series, 1 documentary and 1 talk show. It was a fun experience, who knows if I’ll find the time to do more in 2022. I’d love to continue, but I need to find a better balance in my life before I do. If there’s one thing we humans are good at, it’s bouncing back on our feet!
Anyways, here it goes:
- 3 days for the film Moonfall in November 2020 (Background Extra)
- 4 days for the film Misanthrope in February & March 2021 (Background Extra)
- 6 days for the TV series Transplant Season 2 in April, May, June, July & August 2021 (Background Extra)
- 3 days for the TV series Chaos in April 2021 (Background Extra)

I also have an “extra” thing to share (no pun intended): this is a little demo we made in September because I was trying to build a portfolio. Thanks to the gang at Les Adjuvants De La Prod. for the support and hard work. Give them your support by checking them out!
And with that, I’m signing out. Hopefully 2022 will turn out to be a good year. Take care everyone and Happy Holidays!
Better late than never; here are photos from my Québec trip this last August. Have a nice Sunday everyone!
Had a wonderful time at the iLLOGIKA Christmas party yesterday, especially seeing colleagues in person. Thank you all for being you and stay awesome.

Last April, I did two days continuity on a Disney film set!
At that time, this marked my 20th day of shooting already this year. I’m now at 40! I’m grateful for every opportunity given to me; I’m living my absolute best life at the moment!

When did this truly begin? It all happened because I willed it to. Everything is still yet to happen.
