Office Location
I have been working in the financial services industry since 1990, with a focus on fostering strong client relationships and helping customers achieve their personal financial goals.
I hold a Bachelors degree in Economics from University of Waterloo. I also hold the Chartered Investment Manager (CIM), the Certified International Wealth Manager (CIWM) and the Fellow of the Canadian Securities Institute (FCSI®) offered by the Canadian Securities Institute. In addition, I hold the Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) designation offered by the Financial Planning Standards Council.
As a Financial Planner, I work closely with my clients to help them develop a financial plan that balances life today with their goals for the future. I take the time to understand, not just their current financial circumstances, but also the objectives and motivations integral to it. Whether you are planning for retirement or starting a new business, I am here to help guide you every step of the way. In addition to investment advice, I can also connect my clients with the right TD specialists to help them address a range of financial goals.
In my role, I focus on four key areas:
1. Build net worth – Identifying investment solutions that align to my clients' evolving needs.
2. Implement tax-efficient strategies – Working with my clients to help create and structure their accounts to help reduce tax exposure while keeping income available for when it's needed.
3. Protect what matters – Leveraging the expertise of TD specialists, I help integrate strategies to protect what matters to my clients.
4. Leave a legacy – Helping my clients to build a plan to effectively transfer their wealth.
I am passionate and committed to helping my clients feel more confident in their financial future.
I look forward to working with you.
