About Me

Originally from Northwestern Ontario, Adam is currently articling with the law firm Stikeman Elliott LLP in Ottawa. After graduating from the University of Ottawa with degrees in Political Science and History, he was a member of the TIG team through his participation in the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs's Young Professionals International internship program. He worked for TIG, in collaboration with the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions, in Brussels, Belgium, as a Campaign Co-ordinator for Youth and ICT issues. His main project involved helping to co-ordinate lobbying related to youth issues at the UN World Summit on the Information Society, held in Geneva in December 2003.

After leaving the TIG family, Adam has held various positions (in addition to attending law school at the University of Victoria from 2004 to 2007). Prior to commencing law school, he worked as a researcher with the City of Thunder Bay (Ontario) Tourism and Economic Development office. As a Law Co-op student, he has worked as a policy researcher with Corporations Canada in Ottawa, in the Corporate Law section of the law firm Stikeman Elliott LLP in Toronto, and most recently as a Crown prosecutor with the Canadian Department of Justice in Vancouver.

In his free time, Adam enjoys travelling, music, playing baseball and soccer, and running.
