Navigating through tough economic times compounded by the ongoing pandemic has been an uphill battle for Albertans. Toss in the emotional strain of a relationship breakdown, and it's a recipe for overwhelming stress. When faced with such turmoil, seeking legal counsel becomes paramount.

Hailing from Calgary, Alberta, I've weathered the city's highs and lows, thriving through its successes and enduring its recessions. With a longstanding marriage and three grown children, I understand the intricacies of personal relationships firsthand.

Law wasn't my initial career path; I spent years immersed in music as a classical pianist and educator. However, at 40, I decided to pursue my passion for family law. Alongside my partner Matia, we established our boutique firm in 2009, garnering respect and recognition within the legal community.

Children's welfare is my utmost priority in family law matters. Whether negotiating, litigating, or mediating parenting issues, I advocate for their best interests. My goal is to guide parents past bitterness, focusing on nurturing healthy co-parenting relationships for their children's sake.

The pandemic has crippled our court systems, delaying even the most basic cases. As a trained mediator and arbitrator, I advocate for alternative dispute resolution methods. Mediation and arbitration offer quicker, cost-effective solutions, empowering parties to retain control over their disputes.

A seasoned problem-solver, I thrive on thinking outside the box to tackle complex relationship breakdowns. While I advocate for resolving matters outside the courtroom, my litigation experience ensures strong advocacy when needed.

Beyond legal realms, I cherish time with my Golden Retriever, find solace in yoga, and indulge in the art of crocheting.
