MODERATOR BIO:

I am in my second year of the American and Canadian Dual J.D. program. I graduated from the University of Massachusetts Lowell with a double B.A. in Finance and International Business and a Minor in French. I also competed for the UMass Lowell Division I Women’s Soccer Team during this time. After undergrad, I worked at Deloitte (Canada) as a Financial Analyst while continuing my education at UMass Lowell with a Master of Science in Business Analytics, with a concentration in Big Data. This past summer, I worked at Raymond James (Canada) in Compliance on the Privacy Team. With my experiences in Finance, International Business and Business Analytics, I look to leverage my business intelligence and data analytics skills with my genuine appreciation for the power of data. With the exponential growth in tech, data, and changes in how we do business today, I wish to merge my passion for studying law in this capacity.
