I grew up in Campbell River, here on Vancouver Island. After high school, I studied at universities in Canada and the US, completing a BSc in Engineering which led me to a successful fifteen-year career as a professional engineer in the energy industry, working across North America. Although I enjoyed solving engineering problems, over time, I found something was missing. I didn’t feel I was having a meaningful impact in people’s lives – as I get older this has become increasingly important to me.

So when the opportunity presented itself, I relocated back to Vancouver Island to follow my passion for investing and helping people achieve financial independence, and haven't looked back since.

My purpose now is to transition the skills I've developed as an engineer to guide my clients through their financial lives using a practical and systematic approach. My goal is to ensure my clients avoid common financial pitfalls made by unguided investors, and employ strategies that I've used to achieve my own financial security. I achieve this by utilizing a proven process to answer five simple questions:

1. Where are you today?
2. Where would you like to be?
3. Can I get you there?
4. How do I get you there?
5. How can you stay on track?

Our clients are often focused on clarity and control over their financial situation which can include planning or transitioning to retirement, living in retirement, saving for education, minimizing taxation, estate and wealth transfer strategies and business owners’ considerations. Optimized outcomes require optimized strategies, one size does not fit all.

Our branch is located in Colwood, where we operate an inviting, family focused practice. I am lucky to be supported by two truly exceptional team members, Dana Bryant and Lesley Anderson. Dana and Lesley have been with the firm for over 25 years, and are integral members of our team. Their work is paramount in creating the personalized and efficient service that our long-term clients have come to expect.

In my leisure time I enjoy quality time with my young family and the unique activities available to us on Vancouver Island. This includes snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking, scuba diving and year-round golf.
