PhD and JD/MES

Please consider this expression of interest to join SOAR's Board of Directors. I have been an adjudicator and member of SOAR for many years, and have been involved in public/administrative law for over a decade. I am excited to help further SOAR's objectives and assist in any way I can either on the Board or a committee.
I am currently a Vice Chair with the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario, and previously was a member of the Social Benefits Tribunal with Tribunals Ontario. I have practiced both in the private and public sector, and appeared before many administrative tribunals and courts. I have also been a member of various non-profit boards and organizations and have a long history in senior management in the non-profit sector, prior to my legal career. I believe these experiences will equip me well to work with SOAR either on the board or a committee.
