Our Team

Michael Korkus, Founder & Financial Planner

Michael Korkus

Founder & Financial Planner

I have been a financial advisor for over 15 years. In 2024, I founded the firm, Korkus Wealth Management, to better serve my clients. Most recently, I served as a Regional Vice President in the private investment space.

My wife, our three boys, and I live just outside the village of Douro. You can often find us boating on the picturesque lakes in the region, swimming, making maple syrup, or volunteering in the community. I’ve proudly served with the Douro-Dummer Fire Service for nearly 20 years—three of those as Fire Captain—where I led the acquisition and renovation of the new fire hall.

I look forward to showing you my passion for providing personalized financial advice, taking into account your unique circumstances, and working together to build a plan that meets your goals.

Graham Pitts, Financial Advisor

Graham Pitts

Financial Advisor

I have worked in the financial services industry in a variety of roles over the past eight years, building experience across capital markets, private investments, financial planning, and investment analytics.

Most recently, I served as a Regional Vice President in the private investment space, where I worked closely with investment advisors, financial planners, and portfolio managers, gaining extensive experience in portfolio construction and alternative investments, including real estate and infrastructure.

One principle that has guided my career is transparency. In an industry that can often feel complex or opaque, I believe clear communication and education are essential to helping clients make confident financial decisions and ensuring their financial plans align with their goals and priorities.

I hold an Honours Bachelor of Economics from the University of Ottawa, where I graduated with distinction, along with a minor in Business Administration. I have also completed the Canadian Securities Course (CSC) and the Conduct and Practices Handbook (CPH).

My wife and I, both originally from the Lakefield area, recently returned home after spending the past 10 years living in Ottawa and Toronto. Outside of work, we enjoy travelling in the summer, skiing in the winter, spending time by the lake, visiting family, and getting involved in the local community alongside our dog, Rosie.

I look forward to getting to know you and providing thoughtful, personalized guidance to help you achieve your financial goals.
