      As a Financial Advisor my role is to develop a relationship with my clients to be able to create, plan and implement complex financial strategies. My area of focus is still within the personal banking spectrum with capabilities including business credit and investment needs. My goal is to be able to sit down with medium to high net worth clients and figure out their unique financial situations. I have more focus on independent investment strategies and complex credit needs while still maintaining my level of knowledge for personal deposit accounts. My clients deserve the best advice and that includes using my specialists to help whenever possible - including Financial Planning, Mortgage Specialists, Private and Commercial Banking! With my new transfer to Bloor and Yonge, one of the RBC's largest flagship locations my level of knowledge is useful for help mentoring junior advisors to develop their capabilities.
