About
Sara joins MT+Co. as a summer student. She looks forward to working with each of our practice groups to develop her skills and explore her interest in several areas of law.
EXPERTISE
Sara previously summered at a criminal defense firm, where she developed a passion for navigating complex relational and legal issues. This passion, framed through a systemic lens, is a thread she hopes to weave through all her work.
Before attending law school, Sara worked as a peer support worker at the Downtown Eastside Women’s Centre and later at the UBC Capacity Research Unit as a Research Assistant on a community-based pilot project exploring trauma- and violence-informed outreach in the Downtown Eastside.
