Experience

As a Placement Student at Catholic Crosscultural Services in Mississauga, ON, I conducted extensive research on immigrant family and youth needs, resulting in the creation of targeted wellness and summer programs. Additionally, I contributed to the development of comprehensive immigrant service toolkits and specialized toolkits for domestic violence survivors in the Peel region, offering strategic recommendations for program accessibility and engaging in community outreach efforts. Concurrently, as a Legal Researcher at Access Alliance in Toronto, ON, I conducted thorough environmental scans and developed policy documents aligning organizational objectives with Sustainable Development Goals, particularly focusing on health and well-being initiatives. Prior to these roles, my experience includes conducting legal research, advocating for clients across diverse judicial settings, mentoring students, managing legal services clinics, and providing legal counsel and support in various capacities, demonstrating a strong commitment to social justice and community empowerment.
