Hello! I am Guillaume Faddoul
Insatiable Curious and Forever Learner!
Never! There is no such thing as “Knowing Enough”.
Learning is a privilege, and I’m grateful to live in a time and place where knowledge is so accessible. Whether through traditional education, online platforms, or simply listening to others, I believe every moment is an opportunity to learn.
Of course, I’m not claiming to be an expert in everything—or anything, for that matter! With so much happening around us, it’s impossible to know it all. I also believe it is ok to make mistakes or even forget. The process of learning also means selecting what is interesting to learn, which sources can we trust and which elements can help us to grow professionally and personally.
Absolutely!
There is so much to learn and it is obviously impossible to learn it all.
While I’m curious about many things, two fields have captured my passion:
Technology and User Behavior.
The intersection of Artificial Intelligence, Virtual Reality, and Human-Computer Interaction fascinates me. As technology continues to shape our daily lives, understanding how humans interact with these systems is more important than ever.
YES !
Understanding people's needs and technological capabilities is essential and goes beyond simple programming —it’s about creating meaningful experiences. It does not matter how innovative a new technology is, its success depends on user acceptance and adoption. That’s why much of my research aligns with the work of UX Researchers, from survey design to market and behavioral analysis.
I also took a few online courses and certificates in the field of UX design and UX Research to polish my skills.
Coursera and Udemy are great platforms to learn new skills and I definitely recommend checking them out. I used them to learn new skills in Data analytics, Generative AI, Virtual and Augmented Reality. All of those technologies are fascinating and I would love to do more work and research in those areas.
In addition to technical skills, I’ve also explored Project Management. After earning my CAPM certification from the Project Management Institute, I had the opportunity to volunteer with the PMI San Francisco Chapter. Together, we organized a summer-long hackathon where participants developed innovative business solutions using data analytics, UX/UI principles, and product development frameworks. It was such an enriching experience where I strengthened my leadership, organizational, and strategic thinking skills.
As I previously said, Learning is a privilege and learning comes in many different forms, from traditional education to online resources or simply by listening to the people around you.
I truly believe something can be learned from any situation, as long as the mind is open and the ego is quiet.
