This is my personal pitch deck, a visual and more personal replacement for a traditional (boring) resume/CV. I still have one of those old things, and there's a link at the end of the deck. Sure, you can go ahead and scroll straight through to the end, but why not stop along the way and get to know me a little? Thanks for stopping by, and have a wonderful day!

3. MY STORY
• Like many, my life started when I was
born.
• My dad was a chef who instilled the
love of cooking in me at an early age.
• My mom was an administrative office
worker who taught me to work smarter.
• I have two wonderful children: Lucien
and Vivienne. They are my world, along
with my wife, Roxanne.
• When I’m not working, I like to play
games with my kids, create new things
in the kitchen, and host friends old &
new with a few good drinks & great
food.
• I know next to nothing about them but
enjoy a good glass of wine, whiskey, or
scotch.

9. WHAT AM I DOING NOW?
It’s late 2021, but my last role ended in 2020…what‽
(incidentally, the interrobang is my favourite
punctuation mark, followed closely by the ellipsis.)
In August 2020, my daughter Vivienne (remember
her from earlier in this deck?) was born, so I decided
to take a few months of parental leave to help my
wife and spend some wonderful time with my kids.
Since then, I’ve been doing independent contract
work. With the pandemic, finding a new permanent
role has been a little difficult. Also, I don’t shotgun
applications and yearn to find that perfect fit.
So here I am; hoping to find that perfect fit with you.

10. WHAT DO I WANT TO BE DOING?
You know what I’ve done, and what I’m doing
now, but where do we go from here?
What I want, and hope to find with you, is
greater opportunity to help people. Not only
to help my customers, but to take all of my
experience and help others grow and
develop in their careers.
Having had some great leaders and mentors
in my life, I am at a point in my own career
where I not only want to be that same leader
and mentor for others, but believe that I have
the skills and experience to fulfill that role,
with direct or indirect influence in the
development of others. 10

11. WHAT DO I VALUE MOST?
• Deontology. Regardless of what I do, I align with the
PMI’s values of Honesty, Responsibility, Respect, and
Fairness. Through this I strive to make ethical choices,
build strong relationships, and achieve long-term success.
• Relationships. At some point in our lives, we must all
interact with someone else; human connection is how we
get things done and I value those relationships, both
personal and professional, that are forged along the way.
• Excellence. Perfection is never my goal; rather I aim to do
the best I can every time. When something is half-assed,
it will inevitably have to be fixed later; but if you whole-
ass it the first time around, everyone will be better off.
• Balance. I work to live, not the other way around;
everything I do is to enjoy life for myself and my family. 11

13. MY WEAKNESSES
(OR, WHY YOU MIGHT NOT WANT TO HIRE ME)
UNDERNEATH IT ALL, I’M STILL JUST HUMAN…BUT I’M WORKING ON THAT
I have a
hard time
saying “No”
I’m a people-pleaser, and this isn’t a veiled
humblebrag. In the past, this has led to me taking
on more work than I should have. I am actively
working on this, and I can say “no” when
required…I just don’t like to.
I have a hard time doing something without
knowing “why”. If I can’t see or understand the
purpose of my tasks, I won’t be able to complete
them to the best of my abilities.

I like to know
all the details
of my work

14. I THINK I’M PRETTY GOOD AT WHAT I DO
I've worked alongside Jean-Guy at Citibank and Canada Life and he's always been a team player who
learns the ins and outs of the organization quickly and efficiently. He's tech savvy and pays very close
attention to detail which is extremely useful when dealing with multiple financial products that can be
complicated. Whatever the task or project might be Jean-Guy is always excited to learn about what
needs to be done and creative enough to provide and execute solutions.
Jordan Cameron
Canada Life, Sr. Data Reporting Analyst
I had the pleasure of working directly with Jean-Guy on multiple projects as the Legal Suite Trainer for
the North American region. Jean-Guy is clearly an experienced Project Manager with a heightened
sense of empathy, pragmatism, and professionalism.
He offered our clients his expertise not only in leveraging technological solutions, but was
instrumental in guiding them through implementation and organizational changes to ensure their
long-term. It is clear to me Jean-Guy is a talented individual across many fields and knows well how
to identify with the client and their challenges for best solutions. I am glad to recommend Jean-Guy
as an outstanding addition and influencer to any team. Julian Gay-de-Montella
