During her time at Humber Polytechnic, Aluat gained valuable experience as a Paralegal student intern with the Tax Law Services Division of the Department of Justice Canada.

She has also conducted in-depth legal research, analyzing legislation and jurisprudence to support the work of her colleagues.

Aluat’s acceptance into the University of Ottawa’s Master’s program is a testament to her dedication, hard work, and the strong foundation she built during her time at Humber. Congratulations to Aluat on this achievement!
