Her vast experience in publishing, as well as various other aspects of the industry (booker, show producer, etc.), has given her a solid knowledge of the music business. She is currently on the board of directors of MPC, (Music Publishers Canada), NMC (Studio Bell), and several other associations. She was previously on the executive committee of CMW, and for many years on the Board of Directors of SOCAN, the SOCAN Foundation, the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame, and most recently CMRRA.

Often referred to by its writers as innovative, Bloc-Notes Music is known for its privileged ties in Canada and abroad. Bloc-Notes has won several Felix Awards (the equivalent of Juno Awards) for Publisher of the Year, SOCAN awards, and has received many gold and platinum records, and most recently in May 2021, the Music Publishers Canada's Life Achievement Award. Its repertoire of writers has written hits for the likes of Céline Dion, Faith Hill, Garou, Marie Mai, SOMMM, and many others. Since its beginnings, the company's roster has constantly topped the charts.
