Bio

I am a second year law student at the University of Ottawa's common law JD program. I am interested in family law, criminal law, human rights law, and real estate law. I was Victim Services advocate for 5 years and worked with victims of crime and trauma, many of whom were from marginalized communities. Further, I have experience in both customer service roles and administrative roles.
