Since being called to the Bar in 2025, Shayla has focused her practice on family law, including parenting matters, child support, spousal support, and property division.

Drawing on her interdisciplinary background, Shayla brings a nuanced understanding of the emotional and practical complexities inherent in family law and is dedicated to guiding clients through difficult transitions with empathy, respect, and strategic advocacy.
In her spare time , Shayla also volunteers for the YW Calgary free family law advice clinic.
