Annie Rompré - Web & Communications
communications@centrewakefieldlapeche.ca

It's the vibrant community vibes, rich cultural scene, and plethora of outdoor activities that has brought me to Wakefield, where I've been settled for the past few years. I am a graphic designer with a background in marketing and communication - seeking to enhance experiences and create meaningful connections through digital interfaces. Certified in permaculture design, I try to weave sustainability both into my life and professional projects. I'm bilingual, I love to travel and in my spare time, you'll find me in the forest, hiking, biking and camping under the stars. I'm stoked at this amazing opportunity to get involved locally, contribute to community efforts and to join this amazing team.

Claude has played a key role in CWLP’s resource in offering audio, visual and other technical performance services to those who hold events at the Centre and, most notably, Theatre Wakefield productions. He is the person you will see “in the booth” at almost every event. In the near future, Claude plans to mentor the community’s young and up-and-coming technical staff to ensure the high-quality productions that the Centre has become known for continue.
