I am a member of the Employment, Human Rights, and Labour group.  I have represented clients on litigation matters including, wrongful dismissals, constructive dismissals, human rights claims, and employee grievances.

I give advice on various pieces of legislation including, the Employment Standards Act, the Labour Relations Act, the Ontario Human Rights Code, the Canada Labour Code, the Canadian Human Rights Act, the occupational Health and Safety Act, the Workplace Safety and insurance Act, and the Personal Information and Electronics Act. I also provide advice on employer rights under Collective Agreements.

I have represented clients within the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal, the Ontario Labour Relations Board, the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board, and the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. I have also helped unionized employers deal with grievances at arbitration.

After receiving my LL.B. from the National University of Ireland Galway, I was called to the Ontario Bar in 2017. I have practiced labour and employment law from the beginning of my career for a small management side law firm in Ottawa. After leaving the small law firm, I commenced my own practice and subsequently joined Mann Lawyers LLP as an Associate.

I am a member of the Law Society of Ontario, and the County of Carleton Law Association.

Outside of the office, I enjoy helping out organizations around Ottawa.  I was most recently on the Board of Director’s of the Good Companions. When I have free time, I enjoy playing hockey, and going golfing.

If you have an employment or labour matter that you need advice on, or simply have questions regarding the firm and need information, please contact me.
