How I can help you
Coaching for Academics
I wanted to take my teaching and coaching work to the next level and take it beyond the ivory tower. This is why you can find many of my offers here on this website. If you're an academic interested in personal coaching, sign up for my newsletter to get a personal coaching offer. (I help academics write grants, theses, journal articles, and conference papers, teach them how to use AI ethically, and mentor them in productivity techniques.)
Brand Sponsorships and Collaborations
If you're a brand or company in the AI, productivity, or academic space that's interested in collaborating, sponsoring my newsletter, or getting a shoutout on social media, check out my advertising offers for your brand on Passionfroot. I have a highly engaged and knowledgeable audience.
My Research
Over the last two decades, I have created an ever-growing research portfolio to change our understanding of how games can contribute to society, how we can make technology and life more engaging using elements from games, and how to measure interactive technologies using biometric measures.
Besides mentoring a group of excellent researchers, I teach online and in-person classes on generative artificial intelligence, writing research papers, user experience research and design, game design, and games user research. I was also fortunate enough to give keynotes at gamification and human-computer interaction conferences (like Mensch und Computer and GamiFIN) in the past.
Our research group has worked with millions of dollars in funding and support from clients such as RBC Royal Bank of Canada, TD Bank, Rogers, Scotiabank, Red Meat Games, Alpha Laboratories, MLD Solutions, Wiggles 3D, FlourishiQ, Spirit 50, Gamified UK, and government agencies such as the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC), Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), and Mitacs.
