Cristina Cannavo

Senior Law Clerk

Cristina sure goes out of her way to make others happy. And as the first member of her family to graduate from post-secondary education, her family could not be more ecstatic! First it was off to Wilfred Laurier University where she received her Bachelor of Arts Degree (with a minor in Italian) and then obtaining her Law Clerk Diploma from Seneca College. Clearly when she sets her mind to something, Cristina pursues it with unyielding determination.

With a real zest for travel, Cristina has made stops in many beautiful destinations throughout the world, including Jamaica, Cuba and, so far, four excursions to Italy. She intends to stay near the Mediterranean for her next trips, which she hopes will be Spain or Greece. Then when time permits, Cristina would love to go further afield and cross tours of Thailand and Australia off her bucket list. Good on ya!

When not working on clients’ files, you can usually find Cristina either at the Air Canada Centre cheering on her beloved Toronto Raptors or watching one of her favourite television shows. Among them: Game of Thrones, Chopped and especially Criminal Minds. It’s probably her favourite show because Cristina once met cast member, Shemar Moore. We suspect that that might make watching the show so much more entertaining!

But her absolute favourite pastime is entering her kitchen and cooking up a storm. Hosting large dinner parties is something that she just can’t seem to get enough of. Hmm, wonder how we might finagle an invitation? As someone who loves cooking and fine cuisine, it must have been a real pleasure for Cristina to meet Chef Gordon Ramsay. Although we can neither confirm nor deny his attendance at one of said dinner parties, our hope (if he did attend) is that he did not see a need to lose that famous temper of his.

Blessed with a personality that puts others at ease, Cristina is also a team player; willing to take on any task in order to get things done expeditiously and efficiently.  And with just about a decade’s worth of clerking experience, clients have come to appreciate the assistance, knowledge and insights Cristina provides, making an often challenging process that much easier.
