Our services are all about helping you Build more with Mah™ at every stage of life – whether you’re getting married, buying a house, planning for retirement or living in retirement.
We start the process by executing on our mission, which is to have meaningful conversations with you – in which we listen more than we talk – so we can learn about you and understand you. Which allows us to build an effective financial plan for you that draws from the vast weight and knowledge of BMO Financial Group.
That plan will use a straightforward combination of just the right products, services and strategies for your unique situation. We say straightforward because we believe that the investing world is made unnecessarily complicated and mysterious. We make it far less so by having the many decades of experience it takes to comfortably say “no” to strategies that aren’t right for you. And that’s how you build more with Mah.
We also believe in having a real human touch, so if you want to learn more, let’s talk! Just call us at (416) 928-1104 or click here to reach us through our Contact Us page.

A key determinant to successful investing is an appropriate mix of assets - cash, stocks and bonds. Using recommendations from BMO Nesbitt Burns' Research Department, I work closely with my clients to develop portfolios that are appropriate for them. As part of our long-term relationship, I will recommend changes to a portfolio mix if their personal circumstances change.
Government and corporate bonds, T-bills and other fixed income securities constitute a major component of many of my clients' portfolios. The wide selection of issues available through BMO Nesbitt Burns is sure to include the right term and yield for any investor. I believe that fixed income vehicles offer an extremely attractive way to achieve steady income, moderate investment risk and potentially generate capital gains.
