Graham was the Executive Vice-President, Chief Compliance Officer and General Counsel of Wellington-Altus Private Wealth. Graham was very proud of Wellington and it was never work to him, it was a place of happiness.
Graham grew up going to Nutimik Lake and in recent years went to Victoria Beach. He loved to swim, canoe and sit on the deck with a beer. He was truly a lake person.

He loved to keep active by playing hockey, biking and exercising. He was a member at the Winnipeg Squash and Racquet Club and was president in 2013.
Graham absolutely loved golf and everything with it. He was a member of Southwood Golf & Country Club and was president in 2015 and 2016.
