“My strongest professional quality is my ability to build trust and long-term relationships, whether with clients, colleagues, or stakeholders”

Lynn Roger was born in Montreal, Quebec and raised in a traditional French-Canadian family. Her father was a career police officer and her mother was a proud wife and mother.
The youngest of four, Lynn was raised very differently from her siblings. She was taught to take risks, try new things and continuously seek to understand. She was told that she could do anything she wanted as long as she worked hard. Many of those things turned out to be true.
Taking risks and leading change are common themes throughout Lynn’s entire career. She never took an assignment that didn’t ultimately create meaningful change, which was why she was given those opportunities. She realized that being fearless could have both positive and negative results, so she chooses to surround herself with strong and talented colleagues who challenge her every day and makes her better.
At this stage in her career and life, it’s all about giving back and nurturing the next generation of leaders who will make the world better in their own special way.

A significant part of his focus today is staying ahead of regulatory change while maintaining a seamless client experience. He tracks updates from regulators and lenders closely and works with his teams to adjust systems as needed.
“My approach to my role and my career has always been rooted in passion, focus, and a relentless pursuit of excellence,” he says. “I’ve never been driven solely by profit or business metrics. I believe in hiring great talent, trusting them, and pushing boundaries because innovation doesn’t come from playing it safe.”
His experience isn’t limited to Canada. Ibrahim has worked in the US and UAE, which shaped his global perspective and comfort with adapting to different markets. He thrives on risk, viewing setbacks as stepping stones to progress.
“I’ve always believed that if you love what you do, you’ll never settle, and that attitude has guided every decision I’ve made,” he adds.
That outlook continues to guide his work and reflects his broader goal of helping move the industry forward. Through his brokerage, lending company, and legal services, Ibrahim is focused on creating long-term value for his clients, his teams, and others working in the field.
