With a bachelor's degree in communications from UQAM, Didier Chrétien worked for several years for a major Canadian telecommunications company, where he held various positions in sales, in the internet department and as a trainer. He is currently with Direct Impact Solutions Inc., an international IT company with offices in Canada, the United States and France, where he has held the position of financial coordinator since 2006. He is responsible for accounting, invoicing, and budget monitoring.

Because he keeps abreast of municipal news in his city, and because accessibility to social and affordable housing is more than ever an important issue, Mr. Chrétien has a desire to give back to the community by contributing in his own way.

It is often said of him that he has a keen eye for seeing fine details that might otherwise go unnoticed!
