Maryse Belleau, Senior Liaison Ambassador
Hi! My name is Maryse Belleau and I am the Senior Ambassador with Liaison Services. I started working with Liaison in my first year at Laurentian as a tour guide during recruitment events such as open houses. I graduated from Laurentian in June 2019 with an undergraduate degree in Geography and have come back to Laurentian starting this fall to pursue my degree in education.
I fell in love with our stunning campus on my very first visit. With places on campus such as the Brenda Wallace reading room and the view from the roof of the Parker building, I knew Laurentian was the place for me. Going on my very first campus tour is what made me choose Laurentian, which is why I’m so passionate about giving campus tours to prospective students, incoming students and their family members. Most days you will find me at the Liaison front desk, but on the rare occasion that I am not there, I will probably be in Bell Park, lost in a book.
Degree: B.A.

Pieter Breijer, Manager of Liaison Services
Hello! My name is Pieter Breijer and I am the Manager of Liaison Services.
I began working with Laurentian University as a lifeguard, swimming instructor and U12 competitive swimming coach for the Sudbury Laurentian Swim Club at the Jeno Tihyani Olympic Gold Pool.

Now, in my role as a manager, I work with an exceptionally dedicated group of individuals who strive to be an integral part of your post-secondary journey.
If you find yourself on campus - as a potential applicant or someone helping someone else through the process - stop by my office and have a coffee with me. I’d love to hear about your journey, what you hope to achieve during your time at Laurentian, and how my team and I can help.
