About me
I am a real estate lawyer with the instincts of a courtroom lawyer. I bring extensive experience in residential, commercial, vacant land, and refinance transactions. At Cloud Law®, I deliver innovative and cost-effective solutions for buying, selling, or refinancing. Whether you’re navigating a transaction for your home or business, I am committed to safeguarding your interests with precision and determination. Alongside real estate, I provide trusted guidance in wills and estate planning, ensuring clients can protect their assets and plan their futures with confidence.
In my previous career as a litigation and family advocate, I appeared before various courts, including the Ontario Divisional Court, Superior Court of Justice, Ontario Court of Justice, and Small Claims Court, as well as tribunals such as the former Criminal Injuries Compensation Board.
I graduated from the University of Ottawa with my law degree and was honored with the Beament Green Prize for Trial Advocacy. My legal journey began at WeirFoulds LLP in Toronto. I then joined the Guelph office of McElderry & Morris, where I practiced from my call to the bar in 2013 until 2024. Outside of work, I volunteer with the Ignatius Jesuit Centre and pursue my passion for music as a concert pianist, having performed solo recitals across Canada and the United States.
