Bilingual Dawson College student and founder. I built a profitable events business from nothing, sold 1,500+ tickets, and landed sponsorships through cold outreach and negotiation. I'm comfortable generating revenue, closing sales, and building client relationships in both English and French.

01About

The short version

I'm a bilingual Dawson College student who would rather build than wait. I started Afterlife Events with no budget and no audience — just outreach, negotiation, and a lot of follow-up.

In under a year it grew to five events, 1,500+ tickets, and over $50K in revenue at roughly 47% margin, all with zero ad spend. Outside of that I've spent 6+ years as a self-taught mixing engineer and build small web projects on the side. The throughline is the same: spot the opening, do the unglamorous work, and close.

Featured

Afterlife Events

Problem: No budget, no following, and a crowded Montréal nightlife market to break into.
Approach: Cold outreach, organic content, and word of mouth to sell out rooms; negotiated venue, vendor, and sponsorship deals to protect margin; hired and led a team of 10+.
Result: 5 events, 1,500+ tickets, and $50K+ in revenue at ~47% margin in under a year — with zero ad spend.
