Meet the Team

Maude

Owner

Maude is passionate about life and always looking to develop new ideas. With her loud, contagious laugh, she sometimes has to turn down the volume 🙂 She loves reading romance and crime novels, as well as books on leadership, personal development and health. She loves art, especially portraits and abstract works!

Her work experience has taken her across Canada and the US and given her a global view of the market. Maude worked for the family business, where her father entrusted her with restructuring its Aqualabo division, a drinking-water testing laboratory accredited by the Ministry. Once that was done, she realized it was time to start her own business and spread her wings!

When she visited Salon Espace C, it was love at first sight. Maude dreamed of growing her career in a more feminine, colourful industry where creative expression is encouraged. Since early 2025, she has been the owner of Salon Espace C. The salon is positioned for exceptional growth, and she looks forward to this adventure with passion alongside the experienced and talented Espace C team!
