Shawna Dennis

I’ve spent more than 20 years helping financial advisors and wealth management firms find their voice. The one that builds trust, attracts the right clients, and makes complex financial ideas feel human.

Over the years, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the realities advisors and financial services executives face: balancing growth, compliance, client relationships, and an increasingly digital world.

My proudest work moments include launching a social selling program for Manulife advisors; developing a global content-sharing model that delivered nearly $3 million in production efficiencies in a single year; and spearheading MD Financial through both an acquisition and COVID-19, which had a significant impact on our physician clients.

Outside of work, I chair the board of Lighthouse for Grieving Children — five years in, and it’s the work I’m most proud of outside this industry. And when I'm not doing that, you'll find me at the gym, deep in a book, or cheering on the Jays or the Habs. My favourite place to be is near any body of water; ideally with my husband and two kids.
