Working together to help you achieve what truly matters to you

Office Location
I am a husband and father of two active teenagers. Our family is ingrained in our neighborhood and community after more than sixteen years living in Etobicoke. When not at my desk working, I spend time skiing, road cycling, swimming and being outdoors to gain fitness and energy. Growing up as a competitive swimmer allowed me to garner determination, discipline, diligence, and consistency as personal characteristics I retain today.
I apply the same characteristics to my business and role as a Senior Investment Advisor. Working to help people is a prominent and consistent aspect of my character and career. I believe a high emotional quotient, sensitivity and good communication skills are what make me good at what I do. Active listening and asking clarifying questions allow people to feel heard and understood. This same connective approach applies to the relationships I have with my TD clients. Building a relationship starts with getting to know one another and discovering what truly matters. This process continues by building on financial goals and objectives, creating a written plan, and implementing solutions.
I attended the University of British Columbia where I graduated with a degree in English and Math. Subsequently a passion for investments, working with technical data and information engaged me to start working in the financial industry.

Working together to help you achieve what truly matters to you
I now have a long career investing in stocks, bonds, funds, alternatives, and derivatives. Financial markets and investment returns are often in flux and although returns are often important to investors, building a wealth plan can create a clear picture of present and future and provides a roadmap to help ensure we prepare for and can mitigate unforeseen curveballs in life.I believe being a good investment advisor involves helping clients make good decisions whether in good times or bad. TD's four-pillar approach to wealth management personalizes this analysis and strategy. During this process I engage clients with TD specialists who work in Wills & Estate Planning, Insurance Planning, Private Trust, and Business Succession who come together to support you in discussions and solutions.
My skillset is best served with people who wish to connect and communicate when working through the TD Wealth process. I consistently attend industry continuing education courses, workshops, and lectures as well as taking exams to elevate my designations. When working together I will provide a reliable, disciplined, and well-balanced approach to realizing your financial dreams and aspirations. I look forward to working with you!
