Tyler has gained extensive experience during his 12 years in the financial industry. He started as an independent financial advisor in Edmonton, AB, where he offered holistic investment and insurance advice to his portfolio of clients. He has worked as a mortgage advisor and obtained his mortgage broker license to further help families with things like debt consolidation, buying a new or first home, and understanding their lending products better.  

Wanting to be a bigger part of the local community and local banking services, he started with SASCU in 2021 as our Broker Specialist. This role was primarily responsible for mortgage advice, but Tyler was able to draw on his experience as a financial advisor to spot opportunities for our members to optimize their investment portfolio and tax situation and in turn, enhance their wealth.

SASCU Wealth was fortunate to have Tyler join the team in 2023 as our Wealth Management Associate. Tyler strives to help members achieve their financial goals and grow their wealth in the most effective ways possible, and is committed to financial literacy for the average Canadian. He is passionate about educating members on the options they have: to pay lower interest rates, pay lower taxes, and achieve greater returns, all while planning for the future for themselves and their families.

Tyler was raised in Salmon Arm and while moving away for a time to explore other areas, he has settled back into the Shuswap with his wife and 2 children. When not in the office, Tyler enjoys fishing, camping, BBQing and watching movies.
