Annie was born in 1982 in Quebec, Canada, and at 16, she set out to explore the world, leaving home and never fully returning.

Her journey began in 1998, when Mexico took her far beyond her comfort zone and sparked a lifelong passion for adventure. Married since 2003, Annie and her wonderful husband have three children (born in 2008, 2010, and 2011), and they’re always ready for the next experience.

Writing became Annie’s therapy—a way to process both life’s challenges and joys. In 2016, she and her family sold everything and embarked on a two-year sailing journey, embracing the unknown and discovering new perspectives with no prior experience. This voyage deepened her love for writing, leading her to publish her first book, «Partir pour mieux revenir», in 2020, available on Amazon.

With nearly 20 years in the construction industry, Annie is passionate about sustainability without sacrificing style. Having lived in various housing types and environments, she has a deep connection with nature and strives to integrate natural elements into every project, creating spaces that connect people to the outdoors.
