Teddy Dumont is a young Black queer community leader born and raised in Ottawa with Haitian roots, working at the intersection of art, advocacy, and storytelling.

Through his work as an actor, writer and filmmaker, he creates spaces for honest conversations around racism, homophobia, mental health, and identity especially for youth who don’t always see themselves reflected in Canadian cinema. He wrote and directed two short films "Prenez Soin de Vous" and "Kouraj" that center lived experiences from marginalized communities. His leadership is grounded in empathy, cultural pride, and the belief that telling stories is a powerful way for healing, empowerment, and collective change.
