I joined Tees in November 2020, previously working at a UK Top 50 firm. I have nearly a decade of pre-qualification experience in practice and qualified as a Chartered Legal Executive (CILEx) in the summer of 2024.
My main areas of expertise include:
• Contentious personal and corporate insolvency;
• Company disputes;
• Debt recovery;
• Contractual disputes;
• Consumer Rights Act claims; and
• Private/corporate landlord and tenant matters.

Highly professional and effective team -provincial prices but still able to punch above their weight in heavyweight insolvency litigation.
Legal 500 UK, 2025

I graduated from Stirling University in 2015 with a 2:1 in Law before acquiring a Graduate Diploma in Law (with exemptions) at City St George’s University in London the following year. I completed the Graduate Fast-Track Diploma with CILEx Law School in 2022/23 whilst working as a paralegal and compiling my work-based portfolio for qualification as a Chartered Legal Executive (CILEx). I am a member of R3 the Association of Business Recovery Professionals.
Since embarking on my legal career, I have obtained in-practice experience in residential conveyancing, commercial property, wills and probate, family matters, intellectual property, public law, SEND/discrimination law and employment law, which has been invaluable in understanding how my areas of expertise interact with other parts of private and business life.
In my spare time, I like to take my border terrier Penny for long walks, watch sports and cook.
