The person behind the advisor
Giving back is about sharing what I actually have to offer. Time, resources, experience and visibility.
Philanthropy
In practice, that comes down to four things. Time on the boards and committees that shape my industry. The means to fund the causes closest to home. Twenty years of lessons, passed on to people still finding their way. And a platform aimed at those causes.
Big Brother Big Sister
Being grateful for the opportunities I've had at many levels, giving back in a meaningful way has always been important to me. That's why I've been involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters for many years, more specifically with Mickael since 2015 and Marshal since 2019.
I take this role very seriously and put my whole heart into it. My mission is to pass on the best of myself to them, and above all the following principles: being responsible, telling the truth, and always facing obstacles head on, no matter how difficult.
Vol d’un Survivant à l’Autre
More than 45 young fighters, accompanied by their families, took to the skies to discover the beautiful Québec City region from above. Organized by Hugo Desrochers and a dedicated team of volunteers, the event raised $41,500 for the Charles-Bruneau Foundation in 2026.
Bal des Grands Coeurs
As a partner of the 2024 edition of Bal des Grands Cœurs, organized in support of the Institut de Cardiologie de Montréal Foundation, I am proud to have participated in this important fundraiser. This donation will help the Montreal Heart Institute (MHI) continue its momentum of innovation in advancing the medicine of tomorrow. Thank you to the hundreds of people who joined us in supporting the cause of cardiovascular health!
Its ambition is to save ever more lives by reducing cardiovascular disease mortality by 30% within 10 years.

Grand Bal du Musée McCord Stewart
As a committed partner in 2025, I generously provided the funds to entertain and delight guests at this event held at Théâtre Cartier, a venue where grand architecture meets history.
I support the McCord Stewart Museum, an inclusive space that, for over 100 years, has brought social history to light through a critical and participatory lens, while working toward a more equitable and sustainable society.
Thanks to the generosity of donors, $600,000 was raised to preserve and pass on our cultural heritage through innovative exhibitions and programs. Thank you to all who make this mission possible.

Jiu-Jitsu Brésilien

6AM Run Club
Co-ambassador with my better half Nahla of the Brossard's club. The goal is to bring early risers together at a designated meeting point at the Solar, once a week on Thursdays, to run 5 to 6 km at a social, inclusive pace.
Aviation
In everything I do, I try to find a connection to aviation. That is how much I love it.
