President & Financial Planner

I’ve spent the majority of my career in the financial services industry (over 27 years and counting) working for a large bank-run wealth management firm.  Over time, I realized the focus was more on how to make the firm more money, not how to make a greater difference in the lives of others.  I knew there had to be a better way.

In May of 2021, I chose to leave the "Big Bank" and founded Awaken Wealth Management Ltd. (Awaken Wealth) to give my clients a more robust and better wealth experience. At Awaken Wealth I have the best of all worlds with leading technology and tools available to best serve our clients.  As a Portfolio Manager, I provide investment advice under the fiduciary standard; a legal requirement to always put the interests of my clients first; and as a Certified Financial Planner® I have a duty to act in my client’s interest by placing their interests first.

I’m passionate about the work I do and the opportunity it provides to make a meaningful impact in the lives of others. I hold the Certified FInancial Planner®, Chartered Investment Management®, Certified Kingdom Advisor®, and Financial Management Advisor designations.

I was born in Saskatoon but grew up in Regina and attended the University of Regina before starting out in the financial services industry. I'm glad to still call Regina home alongside my wife, Julie, and to have raised our two sons here, Kyler and Taylen, who have both found their partners in life, having been married in December 2021 for Kyler and Nicole, and April 2022 for Taylen and Emily. We welcomed our first granddaughter, Mayla (Kyler & Nicole), in December of 2023, and our first grandson, Malachi (Taylen & Emily), in April of 2024!

Director of Client Services

After an 8 year absence from the work world and raising our two sons, Kyler (24) and Taylen (22), and looking after all of the household I am excited to join my husband, Scott, in building Awaken Wealth Management.  I have worked in customer service for most of my career, having spent time with a "Big 5" bank and most recently before my time off, over 15 years working with individuals at Service Canada. Having helped Scott behind the scenes for many years now I look forward to getting better acquainted with our clients and continuing to ensure the best wealth management experience.

I enjoy spending time with our family, walks in the park and coffee with a friend, travel- joining Scott on all his trips and planning the next family vacation, gardening and baking. And after 26 years of marriage with Scott and following him and the boys through all of the gyms, cheering them on, I'm now an avid basketball fan- We the North!

Associate

As part of the Awaken Wealth team, a company founded by my family, I am proud to carry on the legacy of guiding clients towards financial independence. I believe that financial planning is not about the numbers— it's about creating a plan that fits your life, values, and goals.

I am passionate about helping individuals and families along their financial journey. I have a Bachelor Degree in Business Administration, majoring in Finance from the Hill Business School at the University of Regina. Throughout my career, I have worked alongside the credit union system, initially with Conexus Credit Union helping members with their daily financial needs. I then moved into working with Equitable Bank with Syndicated lending team as a Syndicated Analyst, assisting the banks and credit unions which we partnered with. Through these experiences I’ve learned the value of putting partners and members/clients needs first. I am passionate about building lasting relationships, that help tailor financial advice that aligns with what matters to them.

On the personal side, I’m born and raised in Regina, and proud still call it home. I have been married to my amazing wife Nicole, since December of 2021. We are now parents to our beautiful daughter Mayla, who was born in December of 2023. She keeps us busy and our life interesting! In my free time I enjoy spending time with family, watching and playing basketball, playing video games, and I am an avid Lego collector.
