> Ann's complete CV

On a personal note, Ann's origins are mainly French, part Irish and part Indigenous (Algonquin and Iroquois). She has two daughters aged 31 and 33, whom she raised as a single mother (with the support of grand-parents and great-grand-parents), while juggling studies and career.

Ann and Ken met in Montreal in 2010, brought together by a common passion for reading, travelling, creativity and personal and professional adventure. Today, they are happy grand-parents to three little girls.

Ken is more sociable, relaxed and reflective. Ann is more of an intellectual, more organized and driven. Their relationship is for them a source of great joy that requires constant attention and vigilant care.
