Charlé Stone

Hi! I am a final year LLB student with a passion for people and the law. By doing everything with enthusiasm, I have fully immersed myself into the co-curricular University experience, participating in activities ranging from playing hockey, to serving on a House Committee. This has taught me the value of a balanced lifestyle, having good people skills, and that hard work truly pays off. I have experience in assisting real clients, and have developed practical legal skills. Because of my can-do attitude, I excel in navigating unknown situations. In my spare time I enjoy hiking with friends, reading, and building puzzles.
