In his previous role at the Barreau du Québec, he led strategic thinking on the ethical and responsible use of AI in Québec’s legal community. In that capacity, he monitored developments in technology, analyzed their impact on the profession, contributed to the development of organizational strategies and policy directions, and advised decision-making bodies on issues related to professional ethics and access to justice.

He also developed tools, guides and training programs on the responsible use of AI, while playing an active role with various stakeholders, committees and working groups. His career has allowed him to combine strategic vision, execution skills and the ability to bring together diverse areas of expertise in support of transformation initiatives, helping professionals adapt and better serve the needs of the public.

He holds specialized training in responsible AI and human rights from Mila, the Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute, and complements his legal background with skills in programming, AI and the Internet of Things.  Before joining the Barreau du Québec, he coordinated AI projects and contributed to the development of generative AI applications for the legal sector. He is also a member of the inaugural cohort of the AI Brigade of the Conseil de l’innovation du Québec, an initiative that brings together technical expertise in support of the broader ecosystem.

Drawing on significant experience in institutional partnerships, he strengthens the firm’s capacity to innovate responsibly while upholding professional ethics and client protection. Within the organization, he works closely with the Chief, Legal Affairs and Innovation to define and drive the innovation and digital transformation strategy, structure the initiatives portfolio (products, data, AI, automation), and ensure the effective transition from concept to production. He provides cross-functional leadership across practice, product teams, IT and compliance, establishing clear development processes, defining acceptance criteria and putting in place appropriate governance.
