Later; Richard was employed by one of Canada’s largest financial institutions serving clients throughout the region followed up by 15 years as a full time real estate agent.

Richard’s down to earth approach is energetic, results-oriented, and eager to bring strong proactive ability skills.  Richard strongly believes that everyone has a voice and it is important that those voices are heard.
