I'm excited to share a bit about my professional journey. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of practicing Canadian income tax law, advising high-net-worth individuals, global families, and businesses on complex cross-border transactions. My work spans corporate tax planning, M&A, international trusts, and estates, all with a focus on helping clients navigate the intricacies of the Canadian tax system. With experience at global law firms, a background as an economist, and founding my own boutique tax practice, I’ve developed a unique perspective that combines legal expertise with economic insight. It’s been an incredibly rewarding journey, and I look forward to continuing to provide strategic tax solutions to clients around the world.
