I have been involved in several large-scale transactions over the years, particularly:

• in numerous transactions in the agricultural and agri-food industry, including asset or share purchases or sales, family succession planning, purchases or sales to competitors, and even asset acquisitions by vesting order;
• in a major sale of shares in the health sector to a company in the same sector;
• Managing buy-outs, particularly in the manufacturing and construction sectors;
• in numerous files that included venture capitalists or investment funds as buyers, sellers and/or investors;
• in sales of businesses to publicly traded companies, particularly in the computer industry and in the printing and publishing industry;
•  large-scale corporate reorganizations, business start-ups, negotiations of complex shareholder agreements and exit strategies.

• "Your business in the run-up to 2024 - Challenges, compliance, growth and diversification", conference given in french with Guillaume Lapierre and Clémence Therrien at the Rendez-vous TCJ en droit des affaires, 2023.
• "The impact of Bill 25 on business law", conference given in french with Guillaume Lapierre at the Quebec Bar, 2022.

I find it important to be involved in the community and, as such I am involved in different causes that are close to my heart. In particular, I sit on the Board of Directors of the Montérégie Youth Center Foundation and in the past, I sat on various boards of non-profit organizations.
