About Us
Home About Us
The Wealthstack story started over 20 years ago when my wife and I began discussing our finances early in our marriage. We decided that we wanted to be as intentional and deliberate as we could, raising our children in a household that inherently and intrinsically understands and values financial wellness. Ultimately, it's always been about financial wellness for us.
As an Actuary, I realised that you can't grow wealth and financial wellness without a measure of that success, or a “progress bar” of your goals reached. And so, to keep tabs on our progress, I created multiple spreadsheets to track my family's investment accounts, insurance products and specific financial goals. The spreadsheets were a great start, but they quickly became exponentially complicated.
Out of this need, the idea and dream of Wealthstack was born and together with the team, a solution was created that is far superior to any spreadsheet. Our hope is that Wealthstack helps you understand your financial products, boosts your financial wellness and encourages you to build generational wealth.

He's all about building financial wellness and helping others do the same.

Roeland van Nieuwkerk
Chief Technology Officer

Roeland has been part of the Wealthstack story from the beginning, sharing Vincent's dream of a dashboard that covers it all. He's got the courage for the start-up life, having spearheaded two of his own, and he's a genius at creating user-friendly digital tech. Roeland's financial superpower is Budget Spreadsheets - you can't beat him at a top-notch, formula-frenzied spreadsheet!

Francois Brill

Francois has pushed the boundaries of creating digital experiences for over 20 years. His passion for inventing the playbook as he goes along is evident in the innovative, beautiful, and simple products he creates. If Francois was a financial product, he'd be a Retirement Savings Plan because “there's no such thing as overnight success.”

Pega Liu
Full stack Developer

Pega is a Software Engineering student at MacMaster University. He's got a real knack for software development and builds rockets in his free time. If Pega was a financial product, naturally, he'd be an RESP because he's living proof that you need to save for College!

Michelle Hinrichsen

Michelle has a life-long relationship with writing for the ordinary, gloriously normal person to read and understand. She loves taking the complex and breaking it down to its most strategic, straight-forward points - good thing she's Wealthstack's resident writer! If Michelle were a financial product, she'd be an Exchange Traded Fund because she packs a lot into her days for maximum efficiency, just like a high-yield ETF!

Duane brings more than a decade of success and experience as a tried and tested Business Development Manager to Wealthstack's ranks. His determination, integrity and proactive nature have kept him on the forefront of growth and progression.
