Julia organized multiple speaker events with the goal of promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in the legal profession. In her last year of law school, Julia was the Co-Chair of the Women’s Law Forum Fundraising Committee. Julia planned two successful fundraisers for the Women’s Law Forum selling clothing and merchandise across Canada. Julia also volunteered with Student Legal Services as an outreach member of the Legal Education and Reform Project. Julia provided legal information to low-income members of the Edmonton community. In her first year of law school, Julia sourced and designed costumes for the UAlberta Law Show performance.
Prior to law school, Julia obtained a Bachelor of Commerce (with distinction) from the UAlberta School of Business. Julia majored in Business Law and Economics and minored in Political Science. During her undergraduate degree, Julia was part of the Business Students’ Association as the Director of Student Health and Wellness.
