Helping you succeed in tomorrow's world

I am passionate about diversity and inclusion within the legal profession.  I am a champion for social diversity, sitting on Osborne Clarke's Social Diversity committee, and promote and support initiatives within OC, our clients and the legal profession more broadly.

I also provide pro bono advice, including supporting a social enterprise client to clear and protect their trade mark in the UK.
