Her work encompasses a range of general corporate affairs, where she tailors strategic, personalized counsel to meet the diverse needs of her clientele.
Her journey into law began at Western University, where she secured her JD in 2020. Rebecca's time in law school was marked by her active engagement with the Western Business Law Clinic. Here, she dedicated her efforts to offering pro bono legal advice to budding entrepreneurs and nascent startups, demonstrating an early commitment to blending legal expertise with community service. Additionally, she took on the role of a Peer Mentor, guiding first-year law students as they navigated the challenges of their initial legal studies. Before stepping into the legal realm, Rebecca laid her academic foundations at Queen’s University, earning a BA in Political Studies in 2016.
Her professional pathway saw her joining a prominent law firm in Toronto as a summer student in 2019, a pivotal experience that paved the way for her subsequent completion of articles with the same firm in 2021. That same year marked her official entry into the legal profession upon being called to the Ontario Bar, affirming her as a member of the Law Society of Ontario.
Rebecca's approach in her practice is both practical and personable, ensuring that each client receives advice that is not only strategic but also customized to align with their specific transactional goals. This approach has not only earned her a respected place within her firm but also the trust and confidence of her clients, positioning her as a go-to advisor in the realms of mergers and acquisitions, as well as private equity and investments.
