What is your favorite practice area?

While I enjoy all aspects of accounting, I’m passionate about helping clients with their tax planning and offering alternative structures to keep their taxes as low as possible.

Why are you passionate about what you do?

I love helping people and solving problems. Our tax system is complicated and it’s very rewarding to help clients save time and money so that they can focus on what they do best.

What’s one thing few people know about you?

I’m an identical twin and my twin is a local lawyer here in Nanaimo so you might end up seeing double around town.
