Our Team

Lionel has worked in the finance industry for nearly 40 years with his career taking off in business administration in the late 1980’s. During the early years he worked in the mortgage field providing over 500 mortgages for his clients, many first-time home buyers. It was then he realized he had a passion for working with people and helping them secure a solid foundation for their future.

In 2000 Lionel began working with BNS, Scotia McLeod as an investment advisor. This was a great career move allowing him to further aid his clients in securing their future investments.

Lionel and his wife enjoy life on salt spring island practicing sustainability with a small hobby farm including a fruit orchard and nut trees. They have chickens, honeybees and grow as much of their own food as possible.

Lionel also gives back to the community volunteering his time and knowledge as Executive Treasurer with the Salt Spring Island Conservancy. This awesome organization protects and enhances the natural values of the island and its surrounding waters by acquiring land or covenants, and by educating landholders & the public.
