I used to think my career path — from a litigation practice to financial services to business continuity & succession planning — was a weakness. Turns out it's a superpower.
Most advisors see one piece of your picture. A litigator thinks about risk and worst-case scenarios. A financial advisor thinks about building wealth and protecting it. An owner of a practice knows what it’s actually like to balance all the things that go along with running a regulated professional services business.
I bring all three lenses to every conversation — which means you don't need three different advisors to get one complete answer. My approach is open, honest, practical, and — I hope — a little fun. It starts with a conversation to see if we might be a good fit.

I’m a Virgo so turning chaos into order makes me weirdly happy. I’ve always been obsessed with personal productivity, workflows and organization! I spend my free time with my family puttering around our fixer-upper house, hiking in the Gatineau Hills, biking around Ottawa, and travelling. I also have an abnormal affinity for my steam cleaner and a passion for carbonated beverages. I’d love to connect on social media!
Let’s start a conversation.
