Philippe, known to friends as Phil, has been a long time staple amongst the Canadian diving community. This Quebec native can think of no better place in the world besides his home in Laval with his wife and daughter. Training with Michel Larouche, the most influential person in his life, has given him some great successes in diving. Over his career Phil has earned 8 senior national titles, 14 age group national titles, and has represented Canada at the 2004 Olympics on the 3M and the 10M synchro. In 2003, Phil was a double gold medalist at the Pan Am Games on 3M synchro and 10M synchro.

As a child Phil dreamed of being an accountant, now he gets up every day for diving and wishes to become a coach of the sport he loves so much.
