At a very young age, I knew I didn’t want to grow up poor in the country. As my teacher said, if you want money someday, you put your pennies in the bank and eventually you will have money. Over time, I learned that gaining wealth wasn’t as simple as that…. this method would only provide me with a potful of pennies in the end.

I graduated from community college, and I started my financial career at a finance company, then moved on to a chartered bank. I learned credit skills inside out and managed and helped many people, but I felt something was missing.

I decided to go into the investment world in 1991, at the same time my third child was born. My focus in-life was always to take care of my family, clients, business and in doing so, they will take care of me. I worked diligently at improving my knowledge by attaining my CFP and EPC while taking care of families wealth and business issues, but again something was still missing.

Then in 1997 when I joined Assante, it offered my clients a team approach … and that was what I was missing. I have surrounded myself with professionals within Assante and outside Assante on our team based practice. This allows us to provide true wealth management. We connect with our family of clients in our offices, or around their kitchen table, or wherever they find it comfortable to talk about their goals and expectations.

Linda and I raised our family in Nova Scotia where we are truly at home. We are very proud of our three children and grandchildren.

Throughout the years I have told my clients that I will never retire as long as I’m able to work, and to provide true value, and that I will be available for them. I may not be in Nova Scotia all the time. However I am available to connect with them from wherever we are in this great country of ours.

My introduction to full time employment began working for a paper and envelope company, this job taught me that precision, and accuracy were extremely important, and I took these characteristics to each position I’ve held.  I also worked as an administrator with a national real estate firm.  After my children were born, I worked part time at a communications company, and full time when my children were older.

In 2007 I was given the opportunity to completely change careers, and joined Assante Financial Management Ltd. where I held the position of Assistant, then Branch Manager, over-seeing the compliance aspect of our branch. In early 2020 Branch management was assigned to Corporate, so today you will find me working alongside Rick Langille, supporting his clients to ensure they receive the support, he is dedicated to providing.

I currently live in Bedford with my partner of 20+ years. We enjoy traveling, golf, dinner with friends and family, summers on the North Shore, and seeing the nooks and crannies of Nova Scotia.

After being a stay-at-home mom for many years, I was ready to get back into the work force, and in 2018, I was offered a position as Administrative Assistant for a senior Wealth Planner at Langille Wealth Partners.

I soon recognized how important our team approach was to our clients and the comfort and knowledge we provided them. I realized I wanted to become more engaged and set out to obtain the education required to work with clients in achieving their financial goals.

Thru hard work and dedication, I’ve completed the Canadian Investment Funds Course, ETF for Mutual Funds and Alternative Mutual Fund courses. This allows me to proudly be a Wealth Management Advisor.

The financial services industry is a complex, ever evolving world, that requires continuous education, and I am committed to achieving the certifications that will provide me with the knowledge and ability to advise clients for years to come.

I have found a passion in building relationships with clients and discovering what is important to them. I work hard to help them meet their financial goals and achieve the future they deserve. Whether you are just starting to think of your future or want to look at a new approach, I look forward to building a relationship with you.
