Martine grew up in Montreal and attended McGill University, earning degrees in civil law and common law. She has been an attorney for over 25 years and loves everything strategy. She spent the first few years of her career in litigation before entering the corporate world, advising and consulting for growth companies.

As the Founder of No More Layers, Martine draws on her strategic acumen and transformative approach to guide her clients to become the leaders of their own lives and experience success from the inside out. She works privately with individuals, entrepreneurs, and professionals as an executive leadership consultant, life strategies coach, and mentor.
She is also an inspirational speaker on conscious communication, mindset shifts, and life strategies. Martine holds a teaching diploma and a life coach certification and has trained in various healing and energy modalities.
When she is not writing or speaking, Martine spends time with loved ones, is in nature, volunteers, practices yoga, meditates, and enjoys cappuccinos from around the world.
