Gabrielle samson
Student-at-Law
I recently earned my degree from the Faculty of Law at Université de Moncton. Originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, I graduated Cum Laude from Saint Mary’s University, where I was honored with admission to the Dean’s Hall of Academic Excellence in 2022. During my undergraduate years from 2019 to 2021, I was also a committed member to the competitive cheerleading team.
My passion for practicing law in both official languages led me to pursue my studies in New Brunswick, at the world's first law school to teach common law in French. Driven by a commitment to community engagement, I founded the first Women in Law Association within the faculty. This association provided mentorship, support, and professional development opportunities specifically for women in law. Through events, conference, and networking sessions, we empowered members with skills and connections needed to help succeed in their legal careers. Witnessing the growth of this supportive community dedicated to breaking barriers and advancing gender equality was incredibly fulfilling.
Beyond professional pursuits, I cherish time with friends and family, enjoy practicing yoga, and find relaxation on the golf course or snowboarding.
