I utilize my experience regarding child support & spousal support claims, complex property & equalization matters, parenting schedule & decision-making issues, domestic contracts, settlement agreements, and various other family law areas to help each client effectively navigate their distinct family law issues. The opportunity to provide quality legal services to Marley Chambers & Associate clients is uniquely fulfilling.

As part of the Marley Chambers & Associate team, I enjoy the valuable resource of working with colleagues who also focus on family law. Prior to joining Marley Chambers & Associate, I provided family law legal services at a national firm and a smaller regional firm. I have had the benefit of strong legal mentorship and I utilize my previous experience in accounting to aid with the various financial issues involved in family law.

Prior to attending law school, I always had a passion for legal advocacy and community issues. When I was a child, my grandparents founded a soup kitchen for those in need. I was raised to appreciate the importance of community supports and found that aiding people during a difficult time is very rewarding.

I completed my undergraduate studies at Western University, obtaining an Honors Business Administration degree and accounting diploma from the Ivey Business School. Upon graduation, I worked in accounting for different media entertainment companies related to television and movies. I then worked for a large international forensic accounting firm, where I aided in completing expert quantification reports for various litigation and insurance matters. I enjoyed gaining exposure to litigation matters through accounting, and this experience entrenched my desire to work in the legal field.

I then returned to Western University to obtain my law degree. I came to experience that working in family law provided a unique personal service component which I highly valued, while also utilizing my interest in advocacy and accounting. Accordingly, since graduating law school I have focused on family law and have provided services to clients in a wide array of matters both at court and out of court.

Outside of work I enjoy exercising, being with friends and family, networking, and broadening my horizons. I have a keen interest in sports, community, government, media, entertainment, and business.
