Nassira was born in Morocco, but moved to Spain at the age of 6. She went to university without having a clear idea of what she wanted to become. She enrolled in the degree of Labour Relations but then discovered her passion for law and transferred to law school after completing her second year.
While in law school, Nassira was elected as representative of law students in her university and got involved in politics by becoming the president of the youth wing of a political party representing her hometown. She was also a regular speaker in a non-profit organization to motivate immigrant teenagers to pursue their dreams and go to university. In addition, Nassira became an author and storyteller when her compilation of short stories was published and was invited to schools and libraries to share them with children and adults.
After law school, Nassira left her promising career in Spain and moved to France to complete her Master’s in Business Law and then followed her heart to Canada where she is in the process of becoming a licensed lawyer.
A few months after landing in Canada, Nassira started working at Cat Financial (heavy equipment finance) doing secured and unsecured debt recovery through legal proceedings working with lawyers across Canada. At the same time, she applied for her NCA assessment and was required to go back to university and complete 8 courses. While working full-time, she took the LLM in Canadian Common Law at Osgoode Hall Law School, received her NCA Certificate of Qualification in September 2019 and passed both Barrister and Solicitor licensing exams in November 2019.
To be called to the Ontario bar in June 2021, Nassira will join Scarfone Hawkins LLP in October to complete her articling, which has been reduced to 8 months due to COVID-19.
