Law graduate transitioning into legal practice with data governance expertise.
What I'm looking for
I am a law graduate with extensive experience in data governance, quality, and compliance, currently transitioning into legal practice. I have completed the NCA requirements and am enrolled in the Lawyer Licensing Process, actively seeking an articling position to further my legal career.
In my recent role as a Data Quality Manager at Redhat, I led governance and compliance initiatives, ensuring alignment with corporate policies and regulatory standards such as GDPR and CCPA. My leadership of a team focused on data governance and quality assurance has honed my skills in risk mitigation and process standardization, which I believe are invaluable in the legal field.
My academic background includes a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) with a major in Criminal Law, where I graduated with First Class honors. I have also completed relevant courses in Canadian law, enhancing my understanding of the legal landscape. I am committed to leveraging my analytical skills and legal knowledge to contribute effectively in a legal environment.
