John Highley Wells has been active in the financial services industry in numerous capacities for soon to be 45 years and shows no signs of slowing down: his CV is testimony to his accomplishments in the field. As a Portfolio Manager for TD Wealth Private Investment Advice for the past ten years John has stood behind his fundamental investment philosophy by investing his client’s assets right alongside his and his family’s. You own what he and his family own. John has always been and continues to be a systematic, daily reader of market information and opinions, which he accumulates and interprets to make sound investment decisions. Working with the Wells on Wealth Group affords John the opportunity to mentor the team and share his extensive knowledge and experience.
In his off time, John enjoys spending time with his grandchildren and visiting hobby stores to add to his and their growing collection of "stuff". As well, he is partial to European cars of which he owns a few and attending summer car shows in North America.

Ellen Wells
Ellen and John celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary in July 2018 and have been working together at TD for about ten years. She has been at John’s side through several market rides as they’ve presented over the decades, and is always amazed at the extensive knowledge, prowess and ability John has shown to work through anything that has come up in his clients’ best interests. Previously, Ellen spent a few decades teaching elementary and junior high school students, first for The County of Strathcona before having and raising their two children, and later high school English for E.P.S.B., ending her career in 2005 to attend to family matters. She enjoys working with The Wells on Wealth Group on a part time basis in the capacity of "Marketing Assistant, chief organizer and editor".
Ellen is fond of many things in life: sharing family and friend time, being Gran-e to three adorable grandchildren whom she wholly loves and spending much time with her mother who has lived with her and John for over a year. As well, Ellen relishes in reading as many books as possible, purchasing yet more books to add to her huge stack, cooking, eating and sharing delicious, nutritious foods, keeping physically active by walking daily, taking NIA dance classes weekly, and now, visiting the gym three times per week with John to develop and maintain strength, coordination and balance.
