About me

As an Associate in the London Commodities team, I specialise in dispute resolution and international arbitration.

Clients I work with include agribusinesses, shipowners and charterers, trading houses, energy companies and insurers, and I have experience of advising on disputes arising from charterparties, sale contracts and incidences of cargo damage as well as carbon credit disputes.

I’ve also advised on various arbitrations including LMAA, GAFTA, FOSFA, LCIA, SIAC and DIAC alongside High Court cases.

Whatever the matter may be, I aim to bring a proactive, client-focused and commercially strategic approach. I thrive while working in a fast-paced environment and enjoy finding innovative solutions to complex problems.

Prior to joining the firm, I studied Politics and Modern History at the University of Manchester followed by the Graduate Diploma in Law from BPP Law School and an MSc in Law, Business and Management from the University of Law.
