WORTH NOTING

Outside the office, Daf enjoys living in beautiful British Columbia. Before committing to law, he worked as a wildfire fighter and still prefers spending his free time outdoors – biking, skiing and exploring with his family. He loves early-2000s pop-punk, and spending time at home with his wife and young son (not necessarily in that order).
