Trainee Solicitor

I am a Trainee Solicitor at Shoosmiths, currently in my third seat with the Commercial (Intellectual Property & Technology) team. I joined Shoosmiths in 2022 as a Paralegal in the Banking & Finance team in London, working on complex cross-border deals in real estate finance, asset-based lending, and corporate lending. Since securing my training contract, I have completed seats in Tax & Incentives and Competition, and I am due to qualify as a solicitor in September 2026.

My academic background includes a BSc in Biomedical Sciences from Cardiff University, followed by the Post Graduate Diploma in Law (PGDL) and the Solicitors Qualifying Exams (SQE) at BPP University.

I am actively involved in the firm’s Charity and Social Committees, contribute to pro bono initiatives. I aim to combine technical legal expertise with a collaborative approach to deliver practical, client focused solutions.
