I began my career in Quebec, working on two theater projects, projects of heritage conservation and residential projects. My career path then took me to Europe, where I am proud to have contributed, among others, to designing an experimental sustainable city, high end commercial projects and transport infrastructure such as metro stations. On my return to Montreal in 2017 I opened i•on architecture studio.
