My Story

You ever wonder why we’re here?
It's one of life's great mysteries isn't it?

Hey there! I'm Zoe Montague, the Founder and Principal IT Consultant at Silverfern Technology Consultants. My journey in the IT world has been all about resilience, determination, and a passion for helping others. Before starting Silverfern, I worked as a Lead Cloud Engineer at an MSP, where I had the exciting opportunity to start a Cloud Hosting line of business while also serving as a leading member of the IT Operations team. This experience taught me so much about cloud solutions and the importance of innovative IT strategies.

At Silverfern, I prioritize integrity, empathy, and innovation, providing tailored IT solutions that enhance productivity, security, and growth of your MSP or MSSP. As a member of the LGBTQ community, I am proud to lead a woman-owned and LGBTQ-owned business. My experiences have taught me the importance of understanding and supporting the unique challenges faced by others, and I strive to create a company that genuinely cares about the success of its clients and community.

One of my most memorable experiences was flying out to New York City for a cloud migration cutover for a client in the process of acquiring another company. The high stakes and tight timeline made it an intense project, but seeing everything come together smoothly and knowing I played a key role in their success was incredibly rewarding.
