Prior to building his practice, he spent many invaluable years in financial planning and was named one of RBC’s top 25 financial planners. Today, as senior portfolio manager and wealth advisor, Sam leverages his wealth of knowledge to assist clients and their families as they navigate the complex world of finance, helping them plan their route by providing a comprehensive roadmap and reach their desired destination through a personalized portfolio. At the end of the day, his ultimate goal is to make a difference in his clients’ lives – not only their accounts.

Outside of the office, Sam is a dedicated family man and enjoys spending quality time with his wife and their young daughter. They share many similar interests including staying active through a variety of sports and outdoor activities. He is also a proud supporter of The Neighbourhood Organization, a Toronto-based charity that helps new immigrants grow their social, educational, and professional skills so they can contribute to building a stronger community.
