(This member hasn't written a bio yet!)
I am a Certified Financial Planner (CFP), Trust and Estate Practitioner (TEP) and hold an Advanced Certificate in Family Business Advising from the Society of Trust and Estate Partitioners (STEP). I received my Bachelor of Business Administration with Honours (BBAH) from Acadia University.
Stewart & Kett has been providing integrated, objective, and customized advice to wealthy Canadian families with complex financial situations for over 30 years.
In 2006 I joined the steering committee of the Family Firm Institute (FFI) and became a founding member of the first FFI chapter in Canada. This chapter was the first FFI branch outside of the United States and served as a model for developing FFI chapters worldwide.
In 2009 and 2018 I co-authored the estate planning chapter of the international guide for advisors to families in business published by STEP. I was a founding member of the STEP Family Business Special Interest Group and in 2010 was the STEP representative on the curriculum review committee for the FFI Family Business certificate program.
