Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, but originally from Sherbrooke in southern Quebec, I have been an arts agent — specializing in music, literature, and the performing arts — for 15 years.

Online interfaces have radically changed the world of arts promotion, public relations, and personal management, but my experience is that nothing has yet replaced real intimacy and connection, a passion for the artists I support, and the unending process of cultivating one’s own taste and judgment. This is what it means to have bespoke management for your career in the arts.

I am a keen amateur violinist and play second fiddle in the Tiburon String Quartet. We’ll never be good enough to need our own management - but I guess that’s one of the ways we come to understand what it means to achieve true excellence!
