Biography

After a long career as one of GP’s legal research lawyers, Vanessa Payne now focuses on firm administration and management.

Among many other things, Vanessa serves on the firm’s executive, associates and student committees, and administers the firm’s articling and summer student programmes. Her position necessitates a lot of time herding cats, organizing and corralling GP’s lawyers for firm meetings and events.

When not reorganizing the library or training students, Vanessa is a political news junkie. She’s a fan of the Oxford comma, British mysteries, and the Toronto Blue Jays.
