I bring the field into the classroom. Every fall semester, on purpose.
At Polytechnique Montreal, my alma mater, I lecture on User Research at the master's level in an engineering faculty.
I tweak the curriculum every year. Not because the fundamentals change, but because the field keeps evolving. When generative AI entered the conversation, I did not add a warning slide about it. I integrated it as a required tool, then built critical thinking exercises around it, contrasting what AI produces with what real field research actually surfaces. My students learn to use AI fluently and to know exactly when not to trust it.
What students leave with
- Hands-on research experience straight from the field.
- Methods chosen on purpose, not by habit or fashion.
- Synthesis that survives contact with the room it's pitched to.
- A readout that changes a decision, not just a deck.
Satisfied partners.

Travail tres bien structure, propositions constructives et actionnables.
C'etait tres interessant, et la demarche va nous permettre de cibler nos interventions pour ameliorer notre parcours numerique.
Tres pertinent ! Votre beau travail aura un impact certain.
The students were very professional and provided informative, clear, and helpful information. They gave an excellent and thorough presentation of their findings. I was very pleased with their work.
