Originally from a small town in the countryside of Quebec, I spent my childhood years helping out on our small farm, riding horses (I promise I’m not a horsegirl) and watching my brothers shoot deer from our porch. I’m now all grown up and live in the big city of Montreal, hence why I choose to spend my summers in the middle of nowhere. I love cooking, working with my siblings and most importantly, I love the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (no, like actually). I was first introduced to planting when my brother forced my sister and I to join his all rookie crew in the middle the pandemic. It was brutally challenging, incredibly rewarding, I met the best people and I’ve been hooked ever since.

Industry experience:
This will be my 5th season in the bush, 3 years as a planter and my 2nd year as a crew boss. I planted for both my brother and my sister, and last season, I had the opportunity to lead a 16 pack. I have experience in first aid, giving out baller tips, being your biggest cheerleader and most important, changing lots of tires (seriously, lots).
What to expect from me:
Safety - The bush can throw all kinds of situations at you that make you feel unsafe. Your safety is my priority from start to finish, always.
Hard Work - I pride myself on being a very hardworking person and you won’t see me stopping. Whether I’ve had 4 hours of sleep or 12, I will do everything I can to make sure you get the most out of your day.
Organization - I am incredibly organized (some people say annoyingly so) and I love to stay on top of things such as managing my time and planning. Also, I love colour-coding things.
Respect - it’s a two way street. I demand respect from my planters and they will get the same from me.
Attitude and Humour - Even on the worst days, I will always try to see the glass half full and entertain you with my sarcasm and good jokes (they’re really good).
Basically, if you’re looking to spend your summer working insanely hard along with great people and getting some good ol’ money out of it, then this might be for you. Shoot me a text or email and we’ll get the ball rolling !

What I expect from you:
Work ethic - tree planting is a difficult job that will test you on multiple levels. If you put in the proper amount of work, it will reward you greatly. I am looking for planters who not only plant a ton of trees, but that will be consistent throughout the season.
Attitude - THIS is key. A positive outlook on the whole experience is what keeps crews motivated. Learning to roll with the punches and making fun of difficult situations will make your season memorable.
Teamwork - Many people interpret planting as a solitary job, but it requires a lot of open communication with your fellow planters. Working and living with the same people can be a lot and it’s super important to communicate and work things out together.
Respect - this is a no-brainer.
