As a Legal Director in Shoosmiths’ Dispute Resolution and Compliance team, I specialise in complex multi-jurisdictional commercial disputes, with a focus in technology, corporate & shareholder, contractual, supplier and insolvency disputes. I also have extensive experience in assisting clients with arbitrations and urgent injunctions. Given my expertise, I regularly work with clients within the mobility, technology & AI, retail and energy & infrastructure sectors.

My recent work includes successfully defending an international hotel brand in an LCIA arbitration from a multi-million pound contractual dispute, obtaining an injunction for an automotive client for delivery-up of several vehicles and advised in a complex technology high profile case which was featured in The Lawyer Top 20 cases of 2024.

I am known for my pragmatic approach to complex issues and provide clear practical advice to help clients manage their risk. I have been personally ranked as a Next Generation Partner in the Legal 500 UK Guide 2026 and as an "Associate to Watch" in Chambers & Partners 2026.
