I am a Director and Senior Investment Counsellor with BMO Private Investment Counsel with over a decade of experience in the investment management industry.

I joined BMO Private Investment Counsel in April 2014 and am currently responsible for managing discretionary investment portfolios for high net worth individuals in the GTA.

Using a holistic approach, I bring together the various lifecycle and lifestyle needs of clients with BMO’s other professionals in trusts, estates, insurance, tax advisory, commercial banking and retail banking

I believe that a collaborative, team-based approach is the best way to help our clients navigate the nuances and complexities of wealth management, so they can have the confidence that their goals are within reach.
