Annie is a passionate advocate, focused on using her talents to promote fairness, equality and access to justice. As an associate, her practice focuses on strategic drafting and written and oral submissions before the Courts in class action and Indigenous law litigation.

Annie acts on behalf of plaintiffs in various matters, including privacy, price-fixing, competition, consumer protection and product liability.

Above all, Annie advocates for the self-determination of Indigenous people in Canada.

She earned her undergraduate degree in International Development with a focus on sustainability and carries the values of global citizenry through all aspects of her practice.
