Suggestions for your article
editYour article contains the big lines of her life. I don't know if you can find more information on her work and maybe on her thesis. There is a mistake in her name in the section Biography. You wrote Mauce instead of Maude. I was wondering if you could do a second category in "Film Credits" to add "Web series" because you mention her work on Bloody Breasts as a web series but there is no differentiation. I think it’s really a good choice to put her role beside her films so we know what she did but maybe you could transform it into a table to make it clearer.
Peer Review
editHello, Your article might be a little short, but it provides relevant informations. Even though the “Biography” portion is not very long, I suggest you split it into two paragraphs: Early life and Education and Career, it will fit better with the Wikipedia form. I also suggest you change the “Film Credits” to Filmography. Since Michaud played a lot of different roles in her films, how about you turn the Filmography section into a table: on the left column you list the films, and on top you can name the jobs: director, writer, actor, etc. and check the boxes that apply. You seem to have linked the film titles to IMDb. I have not seen that done on Wikipedia before, if the films have Wikipedia pages it would be better to link those. Hope this helped, best of luck!

Suggestions for article
editThe main suggestion I would make is to shorten your sentences. A lot of them run on and give a lot of information in too short a space. For example: " She began drama lessons when she was nine years old;[1] by the age of sixteen, her self-made first short film, Finding Hope, was chosen for the official selection in Toronto's International Teen Movie Festival." I would change that to: "She began drama lessons when she was nine years old. By the age of sixteen, she made her first short film, titled Finding Hope. It was chosen for the official selection of the Toronto International Teen movie Festival." This makes your sentences much easier to read, and it is also much easier to retain information. Otherwise, great article"
