Meet our team

Hi! I'm Anny :)

I am an avid side quester, outdoors girlie and medical student. I am the vice-president of OtterS! Four years ago, I picked up my older brother's 2014 Nikon camera and fell in love with the art of freezing a fragment of life in time, of remembering emotions through a still frame. Since then, I have invested in my very own Fujifilm camera, and there is no going back. Last year, I experimented with editing travel vlogs. A whole new world opened before me. I discovered the art of videography, storytelling and the process of conveying a message, an emotion, through moving graphics, music, and voice. There are quite literally ENDLESS creative possibilities, and I'm always trying to live by the saying “to create more than you consume” in every sense of the word.

Meeting likeminded people with the same passion throughout the year was incredibly inspiring. The creation of OtterS was the natural fruit of the combination of passion and skill with love and service for our community. I'm so excited to see where this will go, how many lives we will touch, and how much we can change the world, even if one footprint (or pawprint ;)) at a time. All love, Anny <3

Hello, I'm Orion!

At OtterS, I'm the one in charge of the paperwork, the excel sheets and all the tech stuff. I mostly work behind the scenes to draft all the client contracts, maintain the legal structure of the charity, and make sure that we don't go into debt. Some might find what I do to be the “boring part” of OtterS, but I think it's satisfying to draft an architecture that we can build upon.

The day Andrew first pitched the idea behind Otters Together, I was hesitant at first since I had never touched a camera before, but I thought it was worth a shot. Today, I'm very glad that I said yes, since OtterS allowed me to do something completely unrelated to my past hobbies or studies and to help found a company alongside wonderful people.

P.S.: I made the website you're currently on :)

Hello, my name is Angela. I'm a nursing student, and I absolutely love it. Between lab skill assessments, long shifts at the hospital, and pathophysiology courses, I've learned just how crucial it is to find my balance. For me, that balance is frisbee and creation.

Being part of the McGill Ultimate Frisbee team, I've learned to play through Quebec's summer hail and Ontario's rain, embrace both victories and losses, but most importantly, understand the trust that grows within a team. Through drawing, designing, video editing, and sharing my life online, I've discovered the confidence to express my passion without letting the fear of being judged hold me back.

I've been incredibly blessed, and every day I am reminded how much there is to be grateful for. For this, I want to document a life reflecting all the love I've received from God, and one day, share it with my kids and my cats and rabbits. The desire to create more than I consume, to work alongside others, to spread His love has led me to OtterS. As the head of HR, I oversee our team and help build a warm community while attending shoots and assisting the editing projects.
