About me:

I am the Head of Legal Operations at Purolator, a Canadian freight company, and also serve as co-chair of CLOC Canada. I’ve spent over a decade optimizing legal departments, building high-performing teams, and implementing tech-forward strategies that help legal functions run like well-oiled machines. Prior to my current role, I gained deep experience in the franchise industry, where I learned firsthand how to balance structure, scalability, and brand integrity across multiple business units. That foundation shaped how I approach legal ops today—with a strong focus on process, alignment, and delivering measurable value.

Why I love being a CLOC member:

CLOC has been a game-changer in my professional growth. It’s not just a community—it’s a powerhouse of shared knowledge, collaboration, and support. I love being part of an organization where I can learn from global peers, share best practices, and help shape the future of legal operations. Stepping into a leadership role with CLOC Canada has been an exciting next chapter, and I’m looking forward to deepening connections and contributing to the vibrant legal ops community here at home.

My advice for other legal ops professionals:

Build your network before you need it. Relationships are the cornerstone of success in legal operations—whether you’re driving change, evaluating tools, or influencing leadership, having a strong peer group to lean on, learn from, and share with is invaluable.

A fun fact about me:

I was born just after midnight on New Year’s Day—so I’ve literally been ringing in the new year since the day I was born, and to top it off, I was the first baby of the year in the city!
