Portfolio Manager & Investment Advisor

CFA®

B.Sc. (Hons)

With more than 25 years of experience in the investment industry – including many years in institutional equity research – I have learned that every client's story is personal.  My role as your Portfolio Manager is to truly understand what matters to you, and to apply the same disciplined, research-driven approach used by pension funds and foundations to help protect and grow your wealth.

I work one-on-one with my clients to create a personalized wealth plan that reflects the realities of their lives: career shifts, business growth, caregiving, entrepreneurship, loss of partners, and major life transitions.  Together, we'll define your goals and build a plan that gives you clarity and confidence.

Wealth is personal – it's about having choices, being prepared, and feeling secure in the decisions that shape you and your family's future.  For many, it is building resilience, creating opportunity, and having the freedom to pursue what truly matters.

What motivates me most is helping people feel confident and in control of their financial future.  I take pride in building long-term relationships rooted in trust, clarity and steady guidance - the kind of relationship you can rely on through every stage of life.  And when needed, I'll bring in trusted specialists from across TD to ensure you have the full strength of the organization behind you.

I hold an Honors Bachelor's Degree in Science from Queens University, and a Chartered Financial Analyst designation from the CFA Institute.  I grew up in Northern Ontario but now live in Toronto.  I have three children.  Every year of life has brought some kind of adventure and whether it seemed positive or negative at the time, I learned about being in the world.

After decades in institutional equity research, I saw firsthand how powerful informed, disciplined investing can be.  I now bring that same rigor to the people, families, foundations, and businesses I work with, but in a way that is personal, approachable and tailored to them.

My goal is to holistically manage your wealth by applying my breadth of knowledge and experience so you can reach your best financial health possible!
