Helping you succeed in tomorrow's world

I love being at the cutting edge of new projects, dealing with new initiatives for low carbon infrastructure. I truly believe that the UK should be able to generate 100% renewable and sustainable energy and that the UK should invest in its own infrastructure. That's why I enjoy being part of the legal community that guides and influences governments and policy makers on planning and environmental law, so that these projects can be delivered with minimal impact on the communities that they affect.
