Carolyn's career began in information technology as a systems integrator before she was introduced to the world of litigation support.

Following that experience, Carolyn spent ten years at Stikeman Elliott, Toronto, where she developed and managed litigation support technology, eDiscovery, and trial support needs across the firm. Before joining Consilio, Carolyn ran an independent legal technology and eDiscovery consulting firm that focussed on providing legal services that cut through the noise to deliver efficient, effective, and predictable solutions.
