PFA™
Associate Financial Advisor*
Mutual Fund Investment Specialist**
Rooted in Northern Ontario, I bring more than 15 years of experience in finance, human resources and leadership.
Before moving into financial services, I held leadership roles in operations and human resources, taught post-secondary courses in HR and labour relations and led teams across Northern Ontario. Those experiences continue to shape the way I work today — practical, grounded and focused on what matters most, whether I’m supporting individuals and families or helping employers design group benefits plans that meet the needs of a changing workforce.
My approach starts with understanding your goals, your priorities and the life you’re building, then helping you move forward with clarity and confidence in a way that is personal and easy to understand.

Associate Insurance Agent
I’ve proudly called North Bay home since 2003. I completed my post‑secondary education at Canadore College before beginning my career with Co‑operators in 2012. It has been a pleasure to be part of such a dedicated organization.
I specialize in home, auto, business and travel insurance. I enjoy building strong relationships with clients to make them feel confident, secure and supported in the coverage they choose. My priority is ensuring every client’s insurance needs are fully met so they feel protected in all aspects of life.

I moved to North Bay from Hamilton in 2023 to continue my schooling and was lucky enough to play volleyball at Canadore in my two years of studying. Post graduation I was added to the Co-operators team to welcome clients into our office and assist them with their insurance needs.

Associate Insurance Agent
I have worked for Co-operators since 1997, first in Sudbury in the claims department before transferring in 1999 to sales in North Bay. It’s clear this is a great team to work with because I’ve been part of the Johnson family office since 2000. I am pleased to help our clients with their home, auto, travel, farm and life insurance needs.
Oui, je parle français!

Mutual Fund Investment Specialist**
I began my career with Co‑operators in 2015, working in the Brantford area where I built a strong foundation in insurance and financial services. I later moved into a leadership role managing a local Co‑operators office in Barrie, Ontario, a position I held until 2021.
Driven by the pull of returning home, I came back to North Bay to join the Airport Road office. Today, I focus primarily on life, critical illness and disability insurance, as well as wealth management, helping individuals and families protect their income, plan for retirement and achieve long‑term financial security.
In addition to personal insurance and wealth planning, I specialize in farm insurance and can also support clients with business, home and auto insurance needs. My well‑rounded experience allows me to provide practical, coordinated advice across a wide range of insurance and financial solutions.

Originally from Parry Sound, I moved to North Bay in 2004 to attend Nipissing University. The beautiful scenery, friendly people and strong community connection made me feel at home. Family is very important to me. As a father of five children, I love helping other families plan for retirement and providing insurance protection along the way. I previously completed the CPA accounting designation and am currently a Certified Financial Planning professional. I look forward to helping you with your investments, life insurance, pension and group benefits needs!

Since 1997 I would often visit my wife’s hometown of North Bay and, like so many others, fell in love with the friendly people and natural beauty. In 2017 and after years of planning, we were overjoyed to relocate our family here from the Toronto area. It was in Toronto where I started my insurance career in 2002. Today, along with the amazing team at Co-operators, I continue to strive to offer an exceptional customer experience and to help you with your business insurance needs.
