When everything matters: it is Noel who gets the call for the most critical situations and complex clients.

With over 25 years' experience in the financial services industry, Noel is different because of what he calls Science and Simplicity. As a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries he has extensive technical knowledge to share, yet advisors and clients alike remark how simply he articulates the most complex issues. These skills are what lead people to call Noel and his team when everything matters.

With the vision to be a world leader in providing life insurance solutions for affluent families and an intense enthusiasm for work, it is Noel's zest for life that sets him apart. He has a habit of grabbing the mic, a passion for extreme sports and a belief that the best can be even better.
