My family has called the Comox Valley home for three generations, and I have developed a deep appreciation for the character of each neighbourhood and the region’s spectacular coastal landscape. Vancouver Island’s four distinct seasons and varied geography mean you can stroll to the shoreline from downtown and reach the mountains within twenty minutes. Having lived here since the age of three, I cultivated an adventurous spirit alongside a practical understanding of finance and professional etiquette. I still relish exploring new corners of the Valley and immersing myself in its vibrant culture. These lifelong connections and experiences enable me to engage with the local business community on a personal level and build the trust that forms lasting relationships.
I graduated from G.P. Vanier Secondary in the Comox Valley before beginning my post-secondary education at Camosun College in Victoria. I later transferred to Vancouver Island University in Nanaimo, where I earned a Bachelor of Business Administration in Financial Services. During my studies, I completed two courses through the Canadian Institute of Financial Planning, with a focus on Retirement Planning and Risk Management & Estate Planning. These courses deepened my understanding of financial markets and sparked a strong interest in personal wealth growth and risk management. Shortly after graduating, I began studying real estate, which quickly evolved into a passion for helping clients navigate the buying and selling process with confidence and clarity.
