I was first introduced to insurance in 2019 back in the Philippines , but I didn’t take it seriously—until life hit hard. My family faced both a financial and health crisis. Losing my father early and watching my mom undergo surgery made me realize the true value of financial protection. That experience opened my eyes and planted a deeper sense of purpose in me.

In October 2023, I moved to Canada and began working in a fast food restaurant. Not long after, I took on a second job in healthcare. Despite having two incomes, my wife and I were stretched thin—working long hours, emotionally and physically drained, with little time for each other. Even then, our dreams still felt distant and out of reach.

My wife had been with Greatway since 2022. She invited me and consistently encouraged me to join. Eventually, I said yes—remembering my original goal: to understand how money works and build a secure future.

In early 2024, I became a licensed advisor. While I do this part-time, I give it my full-time heart—continually learning and sharing what I know to help others. In less than a year, this opportunity opened doors we never imagined: we traveled to Mexico and Singapore, and—most importantly—it allowed me to be there for my mother’s final wake in September 2024. None of that would have been possible without the additional income this path provided.

In early 2025, I left my fast food job. Today, I work not just for our dreams, but for the future family we hope to build. I’m driven to empower others and promote financial protection—because life is so unpredictable, and I know firsthand how important it is.

This isn’t just a job. It’s my calling. All glory to God!

If you’re curious about how financial planning can change your life too, I’d love to share what I’ve learned. Let’s talk!
