About
I’m a Montreal- and Toronto-based 1st Assistant Director working primarily in commercials.
Earlier in my career, I worked as a 3rd AD on films like X-Men: Days of Future Past, X-Men: Apocalypse, and X-Men: Dark Phoenix. On those productions, I gained experience working with large crews and complex setups.
I’m usually brought in on commercial productions with a lot of moving parts—tight schedules, agency and client approvals, vehicles, stunts, SFX/VFX, drones, or multiple units.
My focus is on keeping the day well-structured: clear plans, steady communication, and a calm, controlled set. Making sure client, agency, cast, and crew know what’s happening now, what’s next, and where our priorities are.
