Over the course of Jack's career one investment principle has always held true—own good quality businesses! As one of Winnipeg’s leading Senior Investment Advisor and Senior Wealth Advisors Jack's goal is to ensure clients know what they own, why they own it, and offer investment strategies to help grow their portfolios. By delivering excellent customer service and advice, Jack has had the opportunity to provide private wealth management services to many prominent families in Winnipeg, and beyond—some encompassing 2nd and 3rd generations.
Jack began his career as a private investment manager in 1973, working in various roles across Western Canada before joining BMO Nesbitt Burns Winnipeg in 1993.
When Jack is not spending his time researching investment opportunities or capital management (which is hardly ever), you will find him cracking jokes around the office. Jack resides in Winnipeg and is a proud father of three boys.
