About

I'm excited to begin a new chapter as a Juris Doctor student at UBC's Peter A. Allard School of Law. My previous work involved close collaboration with clients, critical problem-solving in high-pressure environments, and balancing complex demands — all of which have prepared me well for the challenges of legal education and practice. As I explore the legal field, I'm particularly interested in gaining hands-on experience through a 1L summer internship. I’m eager to learn from experienced professionals, build connections, and contribute to the profession in a meaningful way. Let’s connect — I’m always open to conversations about law, career paths, and opportunities to grow.
