Top SchoolPascal Deschênes is a senior business analyst and security-focused product strategist with 11 years of experience translating complex regulatory and technical constraints into actionable SaaS security solutions. At Desjardins he has led SSPM, secret-detection, BAS, SIEM migrations and PAM initiatives—consistently delivering requirements, RFPs and acceptance criteria in multi-week cadences that accelerate procurement and deployment. Entrepreneurial and hands-on, he founded FirePress and earlier startups, giving him full‑stack development chops and an operator’s view of hosting, DevOps and product-market fit.

Pascal also teaches blockchain and has a knack for simplifying technical risk into pragmatic roadmaps—an attribute rooted in a background that ranges from military discipline to studio entrepreneurship.
