About

Hi everyone! I’m a proud graduate of the Schulich School of Business and currently studying law at Western Law. I’m passionate about using my education and experiences to help create meaningful change in the legal industry, especially in ways that make the system more accessible, equitable, and forward-thinking. Outside of school and work, I love playing sports, basketball is my go-to, and I’m always up for a good movie. Whether I’m on the field, in the classroom, or in a courtroom one day, I bring energy, curiosity, and a drive to make a difference.
