--- title: | Cameron description: Cameron Drury is a cofounder of Canwi. Early in his career, while working on financial advice transformation projects as a tech consultant, he followed well-meaning advice that made sense at the time but didn’t evolve as his life changed. A few years later, comparing his financial position with a colleague who had planned early became a clear wake-up call. After also working in product at a fintech—where he learned just how complex and inaccessible financial planning can be - Cameron set out to build something better. He believes that with the right tools and clarity, anyone can take control of their finances and end up dramatically better off over time. Outside of work, you’ll usually find him on a tennis court, trying new beers, or keeping up with the latest in Formula 1. --- [Skip to content](https://blog.canwi.com.au/author/cameron/page/1#main-content) [Canwi](https://canwi.com.au) [Blog](https://blog.canwi.com.au) [About](https://canwi.com.au/about) [Pricing](https://canwi.com.au/pricing) [Explore Scenarios](https://canwi.com.au/scenarios) [Sign In](https://app.canwi.com.au/?action=signin) [Get Started](https://app.canwi.com.au/?action=signup) [Home](https://canwi.com.au) [Blog](https://blog.canwi.com.au) [About](https://canwi.com.au/about) [Pricing](https://canwi.com.au/pricing) [Explore Scenarios](https://canwi.com.au/scenarios) [Sign In](https://app.canwi.com.au/?action=signin) [Get Started](https://app.canwi.com.au/?action=signup) # The Canwi Blog Practical financial planning insights - designed to help you set goals, explore scenarios, and build confidence with your money.
