As a lawyer, since 2010, she has practised predominantly in the areas of civil and family law. Tina sits as a volunteer on the Canadian Bar Association (CBA), BC Branch's Restorative Justice Committee and Children's Law Section. She is also a member of the CBA's International Law and Child and Youth Law Sections. Starting in 2019, Tina was North Shore Restorative Justice's Interim Executive Director and led the society during the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic (March to August 2020). From 2017 to 2023, Tina worked to co-found and then develop the South Asian Legal Clinic of British Columbia (SALCBC) as the board's vice-chair, in order to lower the cultural, social and linguistic barriers many face in accessing justice.
