My journey

From government infrastructure to entrepreneurship, to my mission of helping SMBs

💻
2003-2026

+20 years in government IT infrastructure

For two decades, I worked in server infrastructure and automation for government agencies. That's where I developed my passion for automation.

My key realization: Scripts could save hundreds of hours of repetitive work.

I automated server and workstation deployment processes, first with VBScript, then PowerShell. Each automation freed up time to focus on higher-value tasks.

7 years as fitness business owner

I owned two businesses in the fitness industry in Gatineau. This adventure started with the complete digitization of companies that were still running on paper.

I developed systems with Excel and macros, then migrated to Google Sheets and Apps Script. I even created automations with Zapier and IFTTT in the early days of these tools.

My harsh reality: Even with all my IT knowledge, I constantly lacked time to implement these systems. Between managing employees, permits, new regulations, insurance... admin consumes all available time.

The turning point: my mission becomes clear

When I was still a business owner, I trained in automation and AI. I understood two things:

01.

I love it and I'm good at it. Automation has been in my DNA for 20 years.

02.

Entrepreneurs know what they want to automate, but postpone implementation.

I realized I could help SMEs move from idea to action.

Today: My mission

I combine 20 years of tech + 7 years of business. I understand both sides: the technical AND the real challenges of entrepreneurs.

My goal: demystify tech for entrepreneurs who don't have time to learn. Give them access to automation and AI without needing to become technical experts.

My mission:

Help overwhelmed entrepreneurs optimize their operational efficiency by integrating automation and AI so they can reclaim their freedom and protect their company's profitability.

My values

The principles that guide my work with each client

🔍

Transparency

Honest communication, clear pricing from the start, no surprises. If an automation won't save you time or money, I'll tell you frankly.

Speed

First automations are often deployed quickly. No need to wait months to see results - you save time from the first week.

🎯

Personalization

Every business is unique. I create custom solutions adapted to YOUR processes, never generic templates that need to be twisted to work.

🎓

Support

I don't deliver a 'black box'. I train you to understand and use your automations. You stay in control, always.
