I joined Lawrence Stephens’ Real Estate department as a paralegal in January 2022. In 2024, I qualified as a solicitor within the team.
Prior to this, I read History at the University of Warwick before going on to complete the LLM Law Conversion at BPP Law School in 2019. My legal studies left me with an interest in both Commercial and Residential Property matters and I am currently studying for my SQE.
Just as comfortable at a sports game as at a concert, my interests are wide-ranging. I am notably in the midst of completing the ’92 Club Challenge’ which involves visiting all of the football league stadiums.

I joined Lawrence Stephens as a trainee and qualified into the Corporate and Commercial team in September 2023.
I have experience working on a range of corporate and commercial matters, including share and asset sales, mergers & acquisitions, shareholder agreements and company restructures. I have a particular interest in owner-managed businesses in the FMCG market. I enjoy assisting founders with establishing strong legal foundations and protections for their company, and then explaining and guiding them through the corporate life-cycle as they eventually prepare for an exit.
I am actively involved in building the culture of the firm, whether it be organising firm-wide social events or helping manage our in-house social and charitable initiative whereby staff are allocated to teams or ‘Houses’ and can take part in various initiatives to win House points. This initiative was born out of a desire to encourage in-person collaboration and competition through events and charity initiatives, whilst also providing a platform to recognise and award individual achievements.
Outside of my interest in law, I am a keen swimmer and movie-watcher, anything from Pixar to true crime documentaries. I also love trying new food but admit to doing more eating than cooking!
