Requires specialized financial planning expertise to address unique tax, estate, retirement, family or business situations.
Your Partner in Managing Wealth
The path to creating a successful financial plan for my clients begins with a relationship. The kind of relationship that helps me to better understand you, your family and your business.
My belief is that the more I know about your personal circumstances, the more effective I can be in helping you achieve your vision of success.
It could mean retiring a few years earlier, giving your children a head start in life, helping your community, completing a university degree or spending winters in the sun.
However you define success, my wealth management process puts a plan in place to help you achieve the things that matter most to you.
Sound Advice Tailored to Your Needs
The first step is for me to learn about you, your work, your family and your plans for the future. I then examine your current investments, tax issues, time frame and risk profile.
At our second meeting you will receive an assessment of your current situation as well as an outline of the specific services that we can provide to help you achieve your goals. After this meeting, we decide whether or not there is a fit for us to work together.
We then begin the process of implementing the plan, and schedule regular reviews to track our progress, hear what is new in your life and update your plan accordingly.
Expertise When You Need it Most
Life happens. And when it does, I’m there to help my clients adjust their financial plan to make the most of changing circumstances. Whether its aging parents, family breakdown, an inheritance, or the sale of a business or other property, meeting with a Certified Financial Planner is a wise choice.
For more specialized advice, my clients have access to the Wealth Management Group which includes an Insurance Advisor, an Estate Lawyer and a Tax Specialist.
I also work closely with my clients’ existing professionals, and can make referrals as needed.
A Reputation For Excellence
As one of the oldest and largest investment firms in Canada, our commitment to providing the highest standards to our clients is unparalleled: We have been rated #1 in Canada for investment research for more than 25 consecutive years.

On a Personal Note …
Born and raised in the Lower Mainland, I have earned degrees in both Canada and the UK. My professional designations include Financial Management Advisor (FMA) and a Certified Financial Planner (CFP).
My travels to more than 35 countries have given me an understanding of what different places and cultures have to offer, as well as an appreciation for the quality of life we enjoy here on the West Coast. I now reside in White Rock and enjoy hiking, golf, snowboarding and photography.
I am dedicated to quality, long-term relationships that are built on honesty, integrity, trust and caring.
