Angela is a dynamic advocate with experience representing clients before Small Claims Court, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, and the Court of Appeal. After having summered and articled at McCague Borlack, she returns to the firm to continue building her career in employment, commercial, and personal injury law.
During law school, Angela discovered a strong passion for litigation and client advocacy through her involvement in mooting and legal clinic work. Her mooting experience spans constitutional litigation, employment law, and criminal law. She quickly demonstrated a natural talent for oral advocacy—winning the University of Windsor’s internal alternative dispute resolution competition in her first year, and later earning top oral advocate honours in the provincial tort law moot during her final year. Angela also found her clinic work with Community Legal Aid Windsor, where she focused on small claims and landlord-tenant disputes, particularly rewarding.
Prior to law school, Angela attended Lafayette College in Easton, Pennsylvania, on a basketball scholarship for two years before transferring to the University of Ottawa to complete her studies in philosophy and politics and continuing to compete for the Geegees. After graduating cum laude from the University of Ottawa’s Faculty of Arts, Angela spent a year playing professional basketball in Denmark before pursuing her legal education.
In her free time, Angela likes to get her hands dirty and can often be found in her garden or the kitchen. Angela lives by the saying ‘old habits die hard’, and so, in the absence of basketball, she is learning to play golf and trains for triathlons. Angela has recently completed her first full Ironman!
A significant development that the legal field is grappling with is the use of artificial intelligence.
I grew up playing sports and everyone loved to go on about how athletes are so successful in their careers and have all kinds of transferable skills they bring to the workplace.
