Sobre mim
With more than 25 years of experience, I specialize in managing the full lifecycle of physical and digital records across legal, government, private, and corporate sectors. I am an expert in litigation support, database design, and metadata standards, having managed collections exceeding 120,000 records.
Beyond technical records management, I am a skilled archival and genealogical researcher. I specialize in reconstructing historical provenance and transcribing complex primary sources—including those in basic French and Cree—into clear, analytical reports for legal and research teams.
