THE AIM TEAM

Founders

From childhood friends to artistic confidants, AIM's founders grew up together in an environment which discouraged creativity. As they walked the paths they were told to follow, they realized that practically is often misery in disguise. "So, we opted for a new path, a unique path, one which was ours to discover," Abby Shore (C.O.O.) notes. The group decided to take matters into their own hands, creating AIM to encourage up-in-coming artistry’ while upholding a pledge for a better tomorrow.

Gilad Maianski

Chief Communications Officer

Growing up in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Gilad often felt detached from the creative arts scene, both due to a lack of fine art ability & a lack of exposure. Now in Montreal & entering his final year at McGill University, in which he’s receiving a BA degree in Psychology, Gilad has seen the power of creativity be unleashed & hopes to promote that creativity as a means of enacting change.

Maya Berger

Creative Director

Maya is currently in her 3rd year pursuing a business degree at Concordia. Her roots are firmly in Toronto, Ontario, where she was born & raised. Ever since Maya was a child, she has been passionate about fashion & all things creative. Maya enjoys designing, sewing, &, most importantly, transforming ideas into reality. Maya's ultimate aspiration is to merge her affection for business with her love for the world of fashion.
