Debbie Orcheski, CFP, CIM

Debbie joined BMO Nesbitt Burns in 1997 and founded the Orcheski Wealth Advisory Group, laying the foundation for the client-focused, multi-generational practice it is today. As the firm's founder, she established the team's philosophy of delivering customized wealth management solutions built on trust, integrity, and long-term relationships.

Throughout her career, Debbie has remained committed to continuous learning and professional excellence. She earned both the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® (CFP®) and Chartered Investment Manager (CIM®) designations, enabling her to provide comprehensive financial planning guidance and discretionary portfolio management services. She is also a Life Insurance Advisor with BMO Nesbitt Burns Financial Services Inc., providing valuable insight into the tax, investment, and business considerations of insurance strategies.

In 2018, Debbie transitioned leadership of the Orcheski Wealth Advisory Group to her daughter and business partner, Jennifer Orcheski. While Jennifer now leads the team, Debbie continues to play an active role in the business, providing strategic guidance, mentorship, and support to clients and team members alike. As she looks ahead to retirement over the next several years, Debbie remains committed to ensuring a seamless transition for clients and preserving the exceptional service standards that have defined the practice for nearly three decades.

Born and raised in Camrose, Alberta, Debbie and her husband raised their three daughters on a local farm. Her farming background, strong work ethic, and commitment to community continue to shape the relationships she builds with clients today.
