I was born in the Philippines, where I graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Science and a Business Administration Major in Accounting. After spending several years as an Accountant, I made the first of two rather big life changes in 2004: I moved into the field of life insurance. Ten years later, my next big move was to bring my family to Canada. Both of these changes were made with the goal of providing my four daughters with better opportunities in life. And both required a review of my own life insurance policy.
As a life insurance advisor here in Canada, I enjoy guiding my clients through their own life changes as well as their more challenging moments – as their advisor and friend. What I love most about my job is meeting people and listening to their stories.
I will never forget my client who called me two weeks before he passed, asking me to make sure his beneficiaries would be taken care of after he was gone. Because he had purchased life insurance, I was able to assure him that, yes, they would be taken care of… all thanks to his planning and foresight. That’s the beauty of life insurance – it makes me emotional to think about it.
A final thought: One misconception about life insurance is that it’s expensive – actually, if you are young and healthy, it can be a very affordable way to protect your loved ones. If you want to learn more, I’d be happy to speak with you. Reach out anytime!
