Kaela Bald

I am a dynamic, and result-oriented professional with over 8 years of experience in Debt Management and Lending. When I find something that I love, I go all in. This is why I consider myself extremely passionate about helping people lift the heavy weight of debt off their shoulders so they can get back to what matters most. Because life is a gift worth living. When I’m not helping people get back to theirs, you can find me living mine by watching a soccer game, heading to the gym, dancing to salsa music, watching documentaries, and looking into my next vacation spot.

Jean Riddell

Hi, I'm an accredited Credit Counsellor at our Barrie office location. I have been with the agency since 2003. I really enjoy building strong relationships with my clients. I'm a very compassionate, friendly, and patient counsellor. I will make sure you feel comfortable with whatever decision you make regarding your finances and debt. I stand up for every one of my clients and will do everything I can to help alleviate any stress you might be facing. I ensure all of my clients have a clear understanding of where they stand and their next best steps to eliminate debt and get back into life. I am a doting mother, grandmother and animal lover. I love doing projects around the house. My most ambitious one was to build a closet in the bedroom from scratch including putting up the drywall, mudding it and painting the room afterwards.

Randolph Taylor

I am the proud father of 3 wonderful children who has a passion for food. I enjoy cooking but specialize in eating. I am also a humbled & passionate accredited Financial Counsellor who’s had the honour of helping individuals see the light in the depths of financial darkness for over 20 years. I went to school to become a financial planner/investment advisor. In my 3rd year, a credit counsellor from Credit Canada came and spoke to my class about what they did for a living. I was immediately hooked and applied right after finishing school. I’ve never looked back. Some people have jobs that they ‘have to do’ for a living. I ‘get to do’ this job. This is a privilege. I love putting healthy & nutritious food into my body, hanging my laundry outside to dry on a hot summer day and spending time with my family.
