Strategic adviser on commercial and residential development

I’m a Legal Director in Shoosmiths’ Real Estate team, with broad experience across commercial property, residential development and investment. I advise developers, funders and housing associations on acquisitions, disposals and regeneration projects, including landmark sites in Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Since joining Shoosmiths in 2019, I’ve led on complex transactions involving affordable housing, social housing refinancing and mixed-use developments. My work combines technical depth with a clear understanding of commercial drivers—helping clients deliver projects that shape communities.

I’m a member of the Law Society of Scotland and have previously completed a secondment with The Royal Bank of Scotland.
