About

I lead with integrity, reliability, and purpose. Known for being effective and efficient, I set a high standard by leading by example. My emotional intelligence and perceptiveness help me build genuine connections with people from all walks of life, across all levels of an organization. I am also a lifelong learner, adapting quickly to best serve colleagues, and meet organizations goals.

Experience

Founder and Senior Partner - Contreras Law

(2017-09)

I oversee management of a law firm specializing in Administrative Law, Canadian Immigration Law, and BC Co-operative Housing Association Law. I am skilled in drafting and interpreting agreements, as well as statutory provisions. I foster relationships founded on trust with clients, partners, and colleagues alike.

I am equally comfortable working autonomously or collaboratively, and effectively manage time and projects with diverse demands, consistently meeting stringent deadlines amidst competing priorities.
