Melvin is an Associate Adviser based in our Brisbane office at Emanuel Whybourne. With close to a decade of experience in financial services, Melvin spent several years at Macquarie Private Bank before joining a multi-disciplinary wealth firm, where he developed deep expertise supporting high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth business families through exit planning, investment governance, and intergenerational wealth transition.
