My Background

Professional Profile

I am passionate about helping clients engage in meaningful dialogue to address their issues and find mutually beneficial solutions. I have spent four years working incredibly hard to build up my experience of the legal sector, across a range of areas of expertise. As a Civil Mediation Council (CMC) Accredited Mediator, my primary goal is to ensure that all parties involved in a civil and commercial dispute come to a resolution that they are satisfied with. With being recently called to the Bar and experience working within the legal sector, (bodies such as the Central Family Court, Queen Elizabeth Chambers, Gunnercooke solicitors and the Legal Advice Clinic in Leeds), I am fully equipped to provide effective mediation services. 

​

My interests lie in legal technology and in any spare time I have, strength training.
