Summary

Family law has long been a passion of mine. I have cultivated a decade of experience in this area of law that I love. In 2015 I had a brief break from Mr. Sauer's office for maternity leave. After maternity leave I went back to school to upgrade to a paralegal. I loved my time at Mohawk and excelled. I am proud to be a member of the Dean's Honour Roll at both of my Alma maters. After graduation in 2020, I returned to Mr. Sauer's office for 3 years. I departed this position in order to obtain employment that would allow me more use of my paralegal license.
