A Little About Me
Hard work makes luck. I have been lucky in my career and in love. When my high school sweetheart and I got married in 1999, we moved to Toronto to expand our careers. For five years I worked with high net worth families across Ontario, before moving back home to Nova Scotia in 2004 to start our family. For the next decade, I was privileged to work with hundreds of independent financial advisors across Atlantic Canada and have determined the parts of their businesses that I want to emulate and the parts I want to avoid. The result is that I now offer what I believe to be a best-in-class experience to you, my client.
Outside of my business and my wife's career, we are passionate about our family. We have raised two wonderful daughters that keep us very busy! Most weekends we can be found watching them play girls youth basketball, and in my spare time, I enjoy keeping in shape.
