I love to find and develop talent that can provide amazing problem solving abilities for their clients. Good times or bad, expansion, transition, succession or retrenchment, our team provides trusted financial advice in an increasingly complex and volatile world. Our team is adept in meeting with our clients in offices, shops, farms sites, or even at the kitchen table. As required, we flex our ability to meet virtually, specifically when bringing all of Team RBC together to provide integrated solutions.Located in Red Deer, my team is responsible for business and agriculture clients throughout the Central Alberta corridor between Calgary and Edmonton as well as rural communities east and west. We have concentrations of clients in the Energy, Construction, Retail and Supply Chain sectors. We are one of RBC’s Agriculture Centres of Expertise, serving all of Central and Northern Alberta in the dairy, poultry, cattle and grain/oilseed subsectors.Since 1996, I have been providing financial advice to farm and business clients. After transitioning to a leadership position in 2014, our team continues to increase our market share by attracting and building client relationships across Central Alberta. During the past six years, our team members have been recognized five times as Annual National Convention Winners. Two of whom have also received RBC’s highest honour in the ‘Leo Award’. An engaged, highly motivated team drives an amazing client experience, which allows us to achieve sustainable business results.A farm kid, my passion for agriculture was supported by RBC, and led my wife Jeanne and I to Alberta in 2006, where we founded Applecross Cattle, a purebred cattle farm located just west of Red Deer. I enjoy meeting new people and am always on the hunt for talent to add to the RBC team across our network. Reach out to me if you’d like to chat about Central Alberta, Agriculture, emerging Leadership Concepts, or the Evolution of Commercial Banking.
