Madeleine spent many hours of her childhood strolling through the stacks of the Moncton library. Her ideal Sunday always begins with a cup of hot tea, often accompanied by a crossword puzzle and a good book, on the corner of her kitchen table.

She has been working in communications in New Brunswick for almost 20 years. She assists clients with their communications strategy and media relations, and works with organizations in the literary, film, performing arts and community sectors. Madeleine was fortunate enough to study at the Université de Moncton in information-communication and translation, and to complete a master's degree in communications in Lille, France.
