Gene’s favourite part of the job is working with clients who’ve been turned away elsewhere or aren’t sure how to get started. He thrives on stepping in, finding a solution, and securing the right finance when others haven’t been able to. Backed by persistence, strong lender relationships, and deep product knowledge, Gene takes pride in helping clients move forward and achieve their business goals.
Outside of work, Gene trains and competes in jiu-jitsu, plays guitar, and produces house music. He loves being out in the sun, whether camping, road-tripping, or relaxing by the beach.
Fun Fact: He’s also a big fan of good food, quality coffee, and fine Scotch, and shares his home with Pablo, his grumpy miniature sausage dog.

Nice job Katelyn!!!
Rod Biggs is one happy client 💯
Chasing a new truck for his company, Rod Biggs Excavations, Rod contacted Katelyn Barnett for assistance in acquiring the funding for this 2020 Isuzu FRR 110-240.
Successfully getting a loan approval in just a few days, Rod and his team can now take on more demanding projects, expanding their business capabilities.

From Gene's clients...
Absolute pleasure to do business with! Extremely professional and knowledgeable. Couldn’t ask for a smoother transaction. Highly recommend Katelyn at QPF!
Katelyn and her team are amazing to work with. Communication, competitive pricing and follow up can’t be faulted. Would highly recommend.
Glad we had Katelyn Barnett with us all the way. Very happy with the timely service, and thanks for fulfilling our dream 🙏🏻😊
Katelyn and her team do a great job.
Katelyn, Julie and the whole team were a pleasure to deal with and made the process as simple as possible.
This was our second time using QPF with Katelyn and her team and they were fabulous.
We started a new venture, and being a small family business within COVID19 had us worried we would not be able to get a second truck.
But they came through for us. Very happy and highly recommend.
This is the 3rd time we have used QPF.
Katelyn has been amazing, she goes above and beyond to do whatever she can to make the whole finance and purchase process run smoothly.
I would not hesitate in recommending QPF! Thanks again Katelyn for all of your help!
Looking forward to doing business again with QPF in the future!
Thank you so much Katelyn for your prompt and excellent service, the best I have ever had, could not be any happier.
Highly recommend!!!
Katelyn assisted us with finance and was fantastic to deal with, always kept us informed of what was going on.
Can’t fault her, so happy that we are using her a second time.
Thanks Katelyn, Julie and team of QPF Finance Group.
Could not be happier with the service we received. They are the best and highly recommend.
