About Me
You can also find me on Facebook
I was born and raised in Ottawa. In 1996, I joined the 30th Field Regiment, a reserve unit in the Canadian Armed Forces. I entered the University of Ottawa in 1997, pursuing an Honours degree in English literature. In 1998, while still in school, I obtained a commission in the military, eventually attaining the rank of Lieutenant by the year 2000.
In June 2002 I received my Honours English degree with a Concentration in Communication. Later that year, I returned to complete an Honours degree in Communication. I graduated Magna Cum Laude in June 2003.
After graduating from law school in 2008, I spent a year articling for two prominent lawyers in Ottawa. I was admitted to the Bar by the Law Society of Upper Canada in 2009. I began practising in association in June of that year. In 2011, I founded Joshua Clarke Barrister and Solicitor.
I am active in supporting charitable causes such as the Canadian Cancer Foundation, Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario, and Reach Canada.
