About me

I’m a Senior Associate focusing primarily on international trade and dry shipping, helping clients navigate high-value litigation and arbitration, often involving multi-jurisdictional components. 

I often advise on disputes arising from charterparties and sale contracts, as well as insurance coverage and sanctions compliance matters. As part of my dispute resolution practice, I deal with claims before the English High Court and Court of Appeal and various ‘arbitral fora’ including LCIA, LMAA, GAFTA, and FOSFA. My client's portfolio includes from international trading houses and energy companies to insurers, with interests across Europe, Asia and the Middle East. 

I’m dedicated to achieving the best outcome for clients. I support clients by providing strategic advice, tailored to their goals, and managing complex proceedings efficiently. 

Clients know they can rely on me when pressure is high, as I approach challenges head-on with a smile that refuses to quit, thinking outside the box to resolve them as effectively as possible.
