for more than 20 years!
Owner & biologist, M.Sc.
An eternal lover of animals, Joanie developed her knowledge by completing a bachelor’s degree in biology and then a master’s degree at the University of Montreal as part of a biological study for the Ministry of Transport.
Still involved with *Éducazoo, she has honed her ability to popularize science by presenting research at several conferences around the world.
In 2016, she became the owner of the family business after more than 15 years of employment. Her passion for animals, combined with education as well as biology, leads her to develop about 30 themes to support teachers. These teachings from the Ministry of Education guides are now used by primary and secondary schools as well as by vocational training.
Following numerous entrepreneurial achievements, she won two awards during the entrepreneurship contest, the public vote and the woman entrepreneur of the year.
Having the animal cause at heart, Joanie continues to share her knowledge of the animal kingdom through scientific articles and television interviews on Radio-Canada, TVA, Télé-Québec, Canal-D, Canal Vie, etc.
Over the past few years, Joanie has helped to increase the sanctuary’s mission by welcoming more than 400 animals at the Terrebonne sanctuary, 200 at the Quebec City sanctuary and more than a hundred exotic relocations via social networks.
