Senior IT Consultant & Architect
Samuel Parenteau
A bilingual IT professional with over 20 years of experience across a wide range of technology domains, having worked as an IT expert for a broad range of companies spanning multiple sectors. I bring this depth of technical experience together with a human, leadership-driven approach — whether an organization needs support with architecture, planning and management, team coordination, training, or hands-on implementation and administration.
