Lance grew up as a world citizen. He was born in Sri Lanka, lived in Saudi Arabia, and attended boarding school at Marlborough College in England.

Later, Lance continued his education by completing an MBA and a graduate certificate in Project Management from the Keller Graduate School of Management. Lance previously worked as a project manager on global initiatives for companies, such as Hewlett Packard and Sony before he transitioned into the financial services industry. It was here that he came to enjoy making a difference in people’s lives by helping them create financially stable legacies not only for themselves but their future generations.

When not working, Lance is busy being a dad to his 11-year-old daughter, who keeps him challenged yet grounded. He also enjoys travelling internationally to visit family and friends spread across the globe, including as far away as Australia. His personal interests include photography, health and wellness, DIY projects and working with charitable and business organizations as a volunteer and/or member. He is currently pursuing the Certified Financial Planner (CFP) Designation as a personal achievement goal.
