I have been working in the financial services industry since 2007. Prior to taking on the role of Financial Planner, I was a Business Advisor in the Ottawa area. During the last 3 years, I have focused exclusively on financial planning and fostering strong client relationships. 

I hold a B.A degree in Economics from Carlton University. I have also completed the requirements for the Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) designation conferred by FP Canada.

I look forward to working with you to help you achieve your personal financial goals.
