Michael is a proud graduate of Wilfrid Laurier University, where he obtained a degree in Business Administration (accounting specialization). He didn’t have a traditional career path into financial advisory, with the Toronto Blue Jays calling his name first - not on the field but instead in their finance and sponsorships departments. Working for a baseball team is fun and an amazing experience, however Michael was left wanting to make a bigger impact. It was after reading Simon Sinek’s book “Start With Why”, that Michael began to search for something else.
Michael is a lifelong learner and shares this passion with Harry Matheis, his business partner, mentor and friend. You’ll never catch the two of them sitting idle, there is always something new to learn or a better way to do something.
Michael has found his “why”, he gets to help families reach their financial destination each and every day. Each family’s situation is a unique puzzle and that’s what makes the work so interesting and rewarding.
In his free time Michael enjoys travelling with his family, playing sports and donating his time to fundraising for charities such as the Jays Foundation, Movember and the Ride to Conquer Cancer.
