Witnessing history being made at our client the Squamish Nation’s news conference celebrating the Federal Court of Appeal victory over the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.
Favourite BC pastime
Hiking! This past summer I hiked to the bottom of the West Lion (9.5-hour round-trip from Cypress). There was too much snow and I didn’t have gear to scramble the peak, but it was amazing to get so close to the iconic Lions!

Random fact
