Regina Siqueira, Manager Human Resources Sanyo Canada

I want to take this opportunity to thank you for being our employee benefits consultant. Your organization specializes in employee benefits. Period. First, as a specialist in this field, you have an understanding above and beyond one who dabbles in the area. Second, you take a difficult and daunting subject area and simplify it to contextually viable options. Finally, you do not push product. Although it sounds trite, you provide solutions.

Albert Luk, Partner Nesathurai & Luk

I referred  you to a client, Cardinal Containers, who were reviewing their employee benefit program. When I mentioned your name the owner said "Oh those guys are all the same, great savings in the first year but then the rates go way up in year two." However, I was able to tell him that you were well aware of this practice and that you would ensure it did not happen to them. You proved me correct.
