Before joining JFK Law, Han received a Juris Doctor (JD) and a Bachelor of Civil Law (BCL) from McGill’s Faculty of Law. They also completed a Master’s degree (MA) in Anthropology and a Joint Honours Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Anthropology and Political Science. Over the course of their studies, Han spent a significant amount of time in the Brazilian Amazon advocating for the governance rights of local communities over conservation zones. While at the McGill Faculty of Law, Han worked as an intern for the Cree Nation Government’s Department of Justice and Correctional Services and received training to become a Gladue report writer.
Han articled at the Department of Justice Canada in Ottawa. There, they gained experience in litigation matters, did advisory work related to the legal status of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, and worked on several Specific Claims files. They then moved on to a clerkship at the Federal Court of Appeal in 2025-2026 and will clerk at the Supreme Court of Canada in 2027-2028.
Outside of work, Han enjoys trail running, cross-country skiing, and spending time curled up with their two cats and a good book.
