👋 Hi, I’m Derek.

I’m a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) based in Winnipeg, and am lucky enough to work with Canadians across the country.

My journey to here was a bit unusual. Finding myself in a job that lacked inspiration, I was looking for a change and discovered the idea of investing. Knowing nothing about finance, the more I learned the more convinced I became that everyone should know what I was learning. That inspiration led to leaving an established career in engineering in 2019, and to earning my CFP in 2023. Since 2019, I’ve had the joy of helping hundreds of Canadians along their financial journey.

As a CFP, I believe that everyone should know most of what I know. That’s because regardless of what direction our lives take us, having a solid foundation of financial literacy is essential. I encourage you to use this site as a resource to build upon your own understanding, and if there’s anyway that I can help, don’t hesitate to reach out.

Keep doing things your future self will thank you for.
