Tom retired recently from a 21-year career as a Wealth Advisor with one of Canada’s “big five” bank-owned investment firms.  Prior to that, he held various management positions in industry.

Throughout his career as an advisor, Tom had a passion for financial education, and now that he is unencumbered by the constraints of a financial services employer, he has been developing a platform, called www.LocalWealthProfessionals.com.  Tom’s primary objective is to help Canadians become smarter, savvier investors, and where appropriate, to make available to them, a group of Local Wealth Professionals, who have a common goal, first and foremost, of seeing to the true needs of their clients.

The platform includes a complete investment course and a growing inventory of articles and videos, on a range of investment related topics.  Tom also writes articles for other publications and is an advocate for fairness and good practice in the Canadian Investment Industry.
