About me
Not a shop, not a chain. A human being who loves understanding how things work.
Hello,
I'm Samuel.
Independent IT technician in Poitiers. I have always loved understanding how things work — taking them apart, repairing them, improving them. I started early by building websites, then moved on to repairing phones, PCs and other electronic devices.
After my GEII degree and two years at an industrial robotics company, I decided to go independent. Working from my own workshop lets me offer fairer prices and real flexibility.
Outside the workshop, I love a bit of healthy madness. Some of you might have crossed paths with me running up the Dunes stairs of Poitiers for the UCED — yes really. Cycling follows the same logic: passion paired with a lower carbon footprint on every visit.
My journey
Passionate about computing for as long as I can remember — I quickly started building websites and tinkering with machines.
Diploma in GEII (Electrical Engineering & Industrial IT) in Poitiers.
Technician at a robotics company — where I sharpened my technical skills.
I founded L'Atelier de Sam to make a living from my passion: fixing, explaining, helping.

What matters to me
On-site service
I understand the difficulties people face getting around. I come to you — it's that simple.
By bike, by conviction
Cycling is a natural extension of my sporting passions. I travel by bike to my customers around Poitiers — not only because it's fast, but also to limit my carbon footprint on every call-out.
Affordable prices
I work from my small home workshop. That lets me offer lower prices and more flexibility.
The human touch
What I enjoy most is building relationships. My work is about people, too.
