Philippe-Antoine Ménard’s Summary

I live a double life.

During the day, I'm a Quality Assurance professionnal in charge of building and running a Quality Management system for a Pharmacogenomics laboratory based in Montreal.

During evenings, I'm a RPG blogger of rising popularity that muses on his favorite games, adventure ideas, tinkering with rules and player psychology.

My goals? To keep explore what both lives have to offer and to achive the goals I have given myself in both. Maybe one day, one life will trump the other.

I'm in no hurry.
