I came to Canada at 13. Nobody handed me the rules — so I learned them.
I studied business administration and built my career as a leader and manager across many industries, with deep experience on the financial side, most recently in auto finance. In 2022 I brought that experience to mortgages. Today I’m a broker with Équipée Finance, a speaker and life and business coach, an author and a business owner.
My mission is simple: make the hidden rules of money visible, so families can buy with confidence and build wealth that lasts for generations.
A mortgage is a wealth tool. Let’s use it like one.
Know your approval from your affordability, see the real cost of debt, and walk into every lender conversation with a plan.
First-time buyers
Your real buying power, down payment options and every step from pre-approval to keys.
Homeowners
Renewals, refinancing and equity strategies so your mortgage works harder for you.
Investors
Financing for rentals and multi-unit properties, structured to grow a portfolio.
Newcomers to Canada
Buying with limited Canadian credit history — what lenders look for and how to prepare.
