My journey began with a Bachelor of Laws degree, and I have since honed my skills in various roles, including Legal Counsel and Policy Analyst. I pride myself on my ability to find innovative solutions to complex legal challenges while maintaining a strong ethical foundation.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a consistent ability to meet tight deadlines and deliver high-quality results.
