About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To become a better person every day!

ABOUT ME

Hum... I'm a musician, a cook and a mathematician, and a nutritionist! Various interests as you can see. I'm now working as a research associate for the Canada research chair in implementation of shared decision making in primary care.

I need to be active so I use to be busy with lots of projects! But I'm also a quiet person who needs tranquility and silence... If I have a chance to escape civilization and go hiking or camping I take it for sure! Traveling and meet different people is also important for me. To know more, read about my interests! ;)

PHILOSOPHY

All is happening for the best.
