Claudia is completing the Common Law JD Program at the University of Ottawa. Excited by a career in litigation and advocacy, Claudia has participated in several Law Moot competitions as well as engaged in a criminal law advocacy-based Student Proposed Internship. She also likes to give back to her school community by being a mentor to first-year students at the University of Ottawa through the Allies in Law Mentorship program as well as being a member of the Common Law Student Society’s Advocacy Committee.

Before law school, Claudia completed an Honors Specialization in Criminology at Western University. During her undergrad, she worked as a court reporter at the Ministry of the Attorney General.
