Marisa spent fifteen years developing her career as a professional classical and contemporary dancer. A graduate of the École Supérieure de Danse du Québec in 1995, she received honors twice during her training. Upon completing her studies, she was awarded two consecutive development grants—one from the Consulate General of France and the other from the Rosella Hightower International Dance Centre. She then landed her first one-year contract as a soloist with the Volkstheater Rostock in Germany.
After three years working as an independent artist, Marisa joined Les Grands Ballets Canadiens de Montréal (GBC) in 2000, where she built a successful career until June 2010. She then became ballet mistress for the internationally renowned company Lalala Human Steps and is regularly invited to teach by Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal.
Her classes focus on helping dancers refine their technique while nurturing their full potential for artistic expression.

The Distance Between Panels - MTL Cartoonist Michel Hellman's | I'm Not Sure?
Article here: www.building21.ca/podcast-articles/the-distance-between-panels-mtl-cartoonist-michel-hellman
Michel Hellman, McConnell Professor of practice, is a comic book artist, illustrator and art teacher. He is the author of several graphic novels and has participated in numerous residencies and exhibitions. He is interested in the relationship between urban space and comics and, is currently working on a collaborative research and creation project with the CIRM to create a “cartographic" graphic novel focusing on different Montreal neighborhoods and detailing the experiences of their residents.
About "I'm Not Sure"Everyone's always talking about what we're sure of: certainties, predictions, facts. Here at “I’m Not Sure”, we take a turn and ask: What are some things we aren’t so sure of? What do scientists, artists, practitioners, experts, and leaders wonder about? What are the questions and curiosities that guide us to explore the smallest particles, the farthest spaces, the deepest mysteries, and our closest relationships?
