ABOUT | mariepier

I have been working independently as a model for the past seven years. Despite my line of work, people are usually shocked when they discover my interests! Surprisingly enough, I love hockey, football, heavy metal music, video games, and of course, horror movies! Going out on weekends isn't really my thing. I mostly prefer hanging out with friends while playing video games, watching hockey while sitting on the couch, or, even better, watching Sunday Night Football on TV!

Other than being a sports fan or ''geek'', I love to travel. As a teenager, I had the chance to travel around the world through cultural training. Luckily, I have been able to continue travelling thanks to work. I truly feel blessed for everything life has taught me about other cultures.

Working independently hasn't always been easy. The business side of me is what pushed me in that direction, making me believe it's the right thing to do. After a year of animation for a radio station while I was in college, I got implicated more and more. Since, I have worked with bigger names. I like pretty much everything related to media, and that's why during the 2009-10 hockey season, I worked for a sports website called habsordie.com producing highlights videos for every Habs game. It was hard at times but I learned a lot from the experience. A few months later, still in 2010, I was hired by NOS Energy Drinks as a model. That same year, my passion for video games brought me contracts with Playstation products, which lasted for four years. Meanwhile, I got multiple contracts for promotion, making my passion for what I do grow even bigger. In 2012, I got a contract with the Montreal Impact representing BMO as a team leader on the field for the pre-game celebrations. I also worked there the next season, it was a real pleasure to be part of ! In 2013 & 2014 I had the chance to work for the prestigious car company Mercedes-Benz for many events in Montreal.

September 2014 still remains one of the most crucial months in my career. I had a four page interview published by the popular magasine Summum, and was also selected to figure in the most selling calendar in Quebec (DreamTeam 2015). I took place in many interviews for different websites and newspapers aswell. Last but not least I had the chance to be the face for the lingerie company EXESS, which was established in Quebec at the end of 2014.2015 has started off with a filming for the new website of L'Oréal World & for G.Wave hair extensions by Gael Betts.

Coming up next winter, the national diffusion of a Sportsnet publicity called: ''The ultimate hockey fan''!

Stay tuned this year, there’s much more to come!
