IP strategist trusted by global tech and brand leaders

I head Shoosmiths’ national intellectual property team, advising clients across the tech, engineering and consumer brand sectors. My work spans complex patent disputes, trade mark enforcement and IP commercialisation—often involving cutting-edge technologies and high-stakes litigation.

Before joining Shoosmiths as a partner in 2015, I trained and practised at leading national firms. I’ve acted for global innovators, disruptive start-ups and household names, helping them protect and monetise their IP. My experience includes technologies from supercontinuum lasers to autonomous vehicles.

I’m known for my pragmatic, agile approach and for making the complex clear. I regularly speak at industry events and contribute to thought leadership on IP strategy and innovation.
