Sophia Maisonneuve has been with Bayne Sellar Ertel Macrae since 2019 as a summer student. She began her articles with the firm in 2022 and was called to the bar in June of 2023.

Prior to her time at the firm, Sophia attended the University of Ottawa and obtained a combined degree in political science and Juris Doctor in French, graduating cum laude.
