I enjoy assisting clients with complex transactions and unique situations. By helping my clients understand the issues and all options available to them, I am able to develop solutions that give my clients confidence and comfort.
I graduated law school as part of the first inaugural class of Thompson Rivers University’s Faculty of Law. Following law school, I articled at Bell Alliance and continued on as an associate, and now a partner. When I’m not assisting clients with their legal transactions, I enjoy spending time in the mountains and on the water. My favourite activity is mountain biking on the North Shore, however I also enjoy skiing, snowboarding, paddle boarding and kayaking.
