During law school, Justin completed the Intensive Program in Indigenous Lands, Resources & Governments and represented Osgoode at the Kawaskimhon Moot in Victoria, British Columbia. During his final year of law school, Justin served as Co-Chair of the Osgoode Indigenous Students’ Association.

Prior to law school, Justin completed both a Bachelor of Arts degree and a Master of Arts at Trent University in Peterborough, where he researched the Indian Act and its impact on incarceration in Canada for his final major research paper in 2020. His interest in First Nations governance and the intersection of Canadian and Indigenous laws was influenced by his home community enacting the Nipissing Gichi-Naaknigewin (Big Law or Constitution).

Outside of work, Justin enjoys travelling and spending time with family and friends. His goal is to continue learning Anishinaabemowin and be able to share the language with others.
