OUR TEAM
"I've been a small business owner (a proprietor, a partner and a corporate shareholder), I've worked as an employee, had rental property, experienced loss and helped with the resulting estate, dealt with family finance issues - overall, I think I understand what things are like in the lives of our clients. Our team also has great real world experience. That doesn't mean better answers than other accountants, I just think we know how our clients see the world and can add value to the people and businesses we work with because of our training and experience.”
Robert has lived and worked on 3 continents, but B.C. is home having lived most of his life in Kelowna. He finished high school here, and joined the family restaurant business- the iconic Burger Baron of the 1980s and 1990s before pursuing a formal business education and then working with leading global hotel firms. Robert eventually moved into finance and ultimately into accountancy.

Otherwise, he is focused heavily on his family (wife Sonja and their 2 sons). They love to play games, ski and enjoy laughter together. They are a family of travellers, but all agree home is the best place to be.
