About Me...

Dion has been a fully qualified Senior Financial Planner since 2008, having spent time advising clients in the retail and investment banking space, as well as the boutique wealth advisory and accountancy arena, prior to moving to self-employment, licensed by Beryllium Advisers.

Dion has completed the Masters of Financial Planning, as well as an array of further specialist studies including accreditation in Direct Equities, Self-Managed Superannuation Funds and Aged Care advice strategies. He is a Practitioner Member of the Association of Financial Advisers (AFA) and is certified with the Financial Adviser Standards and Ethics Authority (FASEA).

Dion has a recognised ability to explain concepts and strategies in a way that is understandable to his audience; communicating in an open and clear manner with people from all walks of life. He is passionate about helping people improve their financial position, but specifically, giving clarity and peace of mind for his clients around how best to fund retirement.

On a personal level Dion is proudly married with three kids and derives great joy from seeing their young lives develop and flourish. He himself has a constant thirst for knowledge and enjoys getting his hands dirty – he is an occasional home handy-man and will try his hand at most tasks around the house. When he can, he also enjoys getting out on our beautiful Queensland beaches.

What my clients say about me

I've known Ben for more than four years and rely on What If for the accounting for several businesses. Thanks to advice from Ben and his team I am also getting my personal finances in order and have been able to make a plan with improved superannuation that makes me confident for the future. I used to avoid personal financial planning but What If Advice has made the process easy and accessible. Ben and the team go above and beyond providing financial advice and accounting services and are prepared to tackle any challenge. I highly recommend What If Advice. They do not give generic advice they take the time to truly understand your personal circumstances.

Our financial planning meetings with Conaill were relaxed and insightful. Discussing serious topics like wills and life insurance was much less painful with beer on tap…

WIA has been a gem to me that I’d like to keep for as long as I can. I’ve been working with WIAA for almost two years now and I am truly happy being with them. That is all that matters. The people behind WIAA (Ben & Conaill) are so professional and competent that you couldn’t look for more in the financial industry. They’re very organised in dealing with their clients to meet their needs beyond clients’ expectations. Most of all, they prioritise in journeying with you towards financial independence one step at a time.
