With more than 14 years of experience in financial planning, Geoff has helped his members build wealth, plan for their future, and take care of their family.
As the CFS financial advisor for SkyOne members, Geoff believes in our philosophy of people helping people. With a collaborative approach, Geoff takes the time to listen and understand members’ needs, and tailors strategies to help them reach their financial goals. He also believes in enriching members with knowledge, providing guidance to navigate the complex world of investments and insurance, and breaking down the jargon so they can make important financial decisions with confidence.
On his approach to assisting members, Geoff said: “It’s my passion to help our members create, grow, and protect their wealth. I’m here to listen and understand their individual needs and concerns, because I know that everyone thinks differently about their money.”
Geoff has earned the prestigious certification of CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™, meeting the rigorous experience and ethical requirements of the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, which covers financial planning, risk management, investments, tax planning and management, retirement and employee benefits, and estate planning.
