Background:

At initio, Chiara is particularly interested in corporate/commercial, beauty tech, and intellectual property matters. She is drawn to legal work at the intersection of business strategy and execution, and enjoys helping clients navigate practical, commercially driven solutions. She recently returned from an exchange term in Amsterdam, during which she travelled to 14 countries.

Chiara holds a BA in History from Mount Royal University. This past summer, she worked at McMillan LLP, where she gained experience across business law, banking, real estate, securities, insolvency, intellectual property, and litigation. She also contributed to the working group supporting the rollout of the firm’s AI platform. She is excited to return to McMillan for her articles.

Before law school, Chiara worked with the City of Calgary, where she supported the City’s inaugural green bond issuance. She later served as a Project Manager leading a program aimed at digitizing businesses in Calgary’s downtown core. Chiara was recently accepted to the University of Oxford’s Master of Law and Finance program to further her understanding in both areas. Outside the office, she enjoys Pilates, spin, travelling, and cooking.
