My doctoral research is an attempt to understand Joan Didion’s ideas on the nature of truth and knowledge in journalism. I want to relate these ideas to the worlds in which her writing was embedded and chart their evolution between 1964 and 1979.

My project is funded by the Canada Graduate Scholarships - Doctoral (CGS D) program of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC).

I am a member of the International Association for Literary Journalism Studies and Atelier -30-. I also work as an assistant editor for the academic journal Literary Journalism Studies, and in the fall, I teach a graduate-level course on journalism studies at Université de Montréal.

I sometimes moonlight as a writer and filmmaker. Since 2016, I’ve produced, written, and directed a few short films and videoclips:

Good Girl (2017)
Maxine, ou une autre (2019)
Bonnie River (2019)
Mother (2020)
Catharsis (2020)

Good Girl was an official selection at the 2017 editions of Fantasia International Film Festival and Rendez-vous Québec Cinéma. Catharsis was chosen to open Longue vue sur le court in 2020, and won the award for Best Composer at the Montreal Independent Film Festival. More information about Catharsis is available (in French) here.
