Justin works at Wells Fargo Canada and is a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA). Over 12 years of financial and strategic advisory across businesses in Canada and the US. His love for the arts started young with music, DJ shows, and running his own radio show on Co-op Radio 102.7fm. His passion for philanthropy and community engagement has only grown.
My first time at the Beaumont was a full-blown Hollywood "love at first sight" experience. I loved the creative energy and output that was literally bursting from every square inch. The Beaumont provides makers and creators of every conceivable form a foundation upon which to express and expand their creative passion.
