Gary earned his Bachelor of Commerce (Honours) from McMaster University and shortly thereafter, his CPA designation. Early on in his career, Gary followed a traditional accounting path where he earned more than a decade of progressive experience in various finance business partnering roles across several industries including Public Accounting, Private Equity, Manufacturing, Building Materials, and CPG.

Gary recognized his passion for building relationships with candidates and clients as he quickly found success placing CPAs in mid-level to executive-level opportunities.
In 2021, Gary saw an opportunity in the marketplace where he could offer an exceptional level of service with the following purpose – helping businesses and CPAs progress forward by connecting the right people. His entrepreneurial vision lead to the launch of Edgeview Recruitment.

Partner, Graham Mathew Chartered Professional Accountants
“I recently moved to a new firm with Gary’s help. I am so happy with this firm. I feel like this is exactly where I wanted to be. I would never be here if it was not for Gary’s recommendation and hard work. When I first talked to Gary, I didn’t know about this firm at all and I wasn’t even actively searching for other opportunities although I needed a change. Gary listened to me, truly understood what I wanted for my new job and arranged an interview with my current firm. Although I felt the interview went very well, I didn’t hear back from the firm for quite some time. I had other options as well so I thought I would take another opportunity but Gary kept communicating with the firm because he knew I really liked them. He assured me not to rush the decision and it all worked out. Again I would never be here if he was not helping me all the way. Thank you, Gary!
