Mark is a highly accomplished Financial Planner who holds the Chartered Financial Planner designation, which he earned in 2009. As a licensed insurance broker and private market investment opportunities Dealing Representative of Pinnacle Wealth Brokers Inc., Mark provides his clients with insurance products and services.

Originally admitted to Queen’s University’s Bachelor of Commerce program, Mark’s passion for the sciences soon led him to pursue a double major in Geology and Theoretical Physics. However, his career came back to business when he accepted an opportunity to develop a master franchise for BeaverTails™, a Canadian food franchise popular in ski resorts. Ultimately, love and family compelled Mark to return to Canada. Upon his return in 2001, Mark quickly established himself in the financial services sector, becoming a licensed insurance broker in the Province of Ontario in 2002. In 2009, Mark further enhanced his expertise by obtaining his Chartered Financial Planner designation, enabling him to provide comprehensive financial plans that seamlessly integrate with his clients’ insurance and investment needs. In the early stages of his career, Mark and his wife Carmen explored various real estate investment opportunities as potential entrepreneurs, but they lacked the necessary time and resources to pursue these projects effectively, and at the scale they desired. Mark also recognized the value of leveraging the connections, experience, and contacts of individuals who were far more experienced and knowledgeable in the field. This realization led Mark to invest in his first real estate investment trust and gain exposure to other private market investment opportunities.

Mark’s interest in the private markets and his desire to provide his clients with such opportunities prompted him to become a Dealing Representative with Pinnacle Wealth Brokers Inc. in 2015.

As a Certified Financial Planner (CFP), licensed insurance agent, and Dealing Representative, Mark guides his clients as their personal financial advisors, providing comprehensive guidance on all aspects of their family’s financial well-being and future. He strives to preserve their values and traditions while ensuring their financial security for generations to come.

Outside of his professional responsibilities, Mark enjoys spending time with his family and engages in various hobbies, including kayaking, hiking, photography, and recently, becoming an accredited Amateur Radio Operator (VA3YMS). This achievement allows him to participate with his father, VE3TAS, and share their passion for amateur radio communication.
