As the year comes to an end, Jodoin Lamarre Pratte architectes is delighted to announce the appointment of a new senior partner. Lead architect Stéphanie Boudreau will join Julie Boucher, Michel Broz, Catherine Demers, Martine Gévry, Sylvain Morrier, and Nicolas Ranger at the helm of the firm in January 2026.

Since joining the firm in 2011, Stéphanie has devoted most of her practice to the design of hospital projects. In that time, she has become recognized and appreciated for her rigour, professionalism, natural leadership, calm demeanour, interpersonal skills, and remarkable memory. Her new role is welcomed by the team as it ensures the continuity of the firm’s expertise in the healthcare sector, in which it has been working since the early 1980s.

Over the past years, Stéphanie has gradually taken on significant responsibilities for major, complex projects. After participating in the design of the Regional Integrated Cancer Centre at the Hôtel-Dieu Hospital in Lévis, the Raymond-Barcelo Integrated Dialysis Centre at Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital, and the Integrated cancer treatment centre of the CHU de Québec-Université Laval, she was responsible for planning clinical functional units, workshops, and specialized equipment, she oversaw quality control for interior design, and she co-led the teams for the major expansion and modernization of the Verdun Hospital. She was also the clinical planning manager of the operating room, medical device reprocessing unit (MDRU), dialysis unit, and outpatient medical-surgical clinic for the future Peter Gilgan Hospital in Mississauga.

Stéphanie is currently responsible for planning outpatient clinics—including the sleep clinic, audiology, respiratory function testing, neurosurgery, and orthopedics—for the new Ottawa Hospital campus and is co-project manager for the modernization of the Institut national de psychiatrie légale Philippe-Pinel. Within Jodoin Lamarre Pratte architectes, she is part of the project management committee, which oversees the development of tools and best practices to support the work of the firm’s project managers.

While Jodoin Lamarre Pratte architectes achieved gender parity among its senior partners in 2023 with the appointment of Julie Boucher, the firm will now have a majority female leadership team for the new year. This composition is representative of the firm as a whole: 60 percent of the organization are women, or 125 of its 210 current employees. Stéphanie’s integration into a leadership role will be effective in supporting the management of a team that has grown significantly in recent years.

The entire team congratulates Stéphanie on this well-deserved recognition of her work and commitment.
