passionate about social justice.
I feel most inspired when I am working towards systemic change in the legal system, either through research, writing, or providing education. I strive to conduct all my work with cultural humility, and from a place that is trauma-informed.
I was called to the bar in 2015 and I am currently pursuing my PhD in law at UBC. In the past I worked with Rise Women's Legal Centre primarily conducting research on family violence and the family legal system, and providing education. Prior to Rise, I worked with the federal Crown in Winnipeg and in Vancouver. I hold a Master of Laws from the University of British Columbia (2018), a Juris Doctor from the University of Manitoba (2014), and a Bachelor of Arts from Brandon University (2010).
