Covid-19 may\nhave changed some dynamics of the office, but it hasn\u2019t kept it down. I\u2019m excited\nto have the chance this summer to be part of a team that has been able to\novercome many challenges brought on by these past few months. Daniel and\nPartners LLP is made up of a team that is always willing to lend a helping hand\nto others in order to keep things running smoothly. Although the future holds\nmany uncertainties for us all, I am confident that we will get through this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My second year of law school proved\nitself to be an exciting experience. I began the year by sitting on the Dean\u2019s\nHiring Committee where I represented the student body\u2019s voice and vote when it\ncame time to choosing the new Dean. I can easily remember how overwhelming the\nfirst year of law school can feel, so I was very happy to have had the\nopportunity to be one of the upper year orientation leaders for the incoming\nfirst year students. It wouldn\u2019t feel like law school without playing in the\nannual rugby tournament. This year the tournament was held in Vancouver where\nwe battled it out against the other western law schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this coming fall will mark\nthe beginning of the end to my law school career at Thompson Rivers University\nin Kamloops, British Columbia, the memories and friendships will carry on. Change\ncan sometimes be intimidating, but I\u2019m excited to turn the page and move on to the\nnext chapter of my life by putting into practice what I will have spent the\nlast three years learning in lecture halls. My hopes are that in this coming\nschool year our global situation will improve and I will be able to participate\nin the Bowman National Tax Moot in Toronto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Summering at Daniel and Partners\nLLP has been a great experience and has taught me elements of the profession\nthat I would not have learned in the classroom. While I plan to continue to\nkeep an open mind to all areas of law, I have a growing interest in the areas\nof real estate, business and land use planning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s good to be back!
