About me

As a Partner in the Commercial, TMT and IP (Public Sector) team, I advise clients across the public and private sectors on commercial contracting and procurement strategy. My expertise spans supply chain structuring, outsourcing, grant funding and complex public procurement, be that for commissioners or providers. 

Since joining the firm in 2010, I’ve advised on landmark infrastructure and digital health projects for NHS England, the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, Liverpool and Leeds City Councils, and others. My clients describe me as pragmatic and personable. Reassuringly, they also tell me ‘I know what I’m talking about’. 

I’m also proud to serve as Hon Treasurer of the Manchester Law Society and chair the boards of charities within the Big Life Group. My favourite escape is spending time up in the Outer Hebrides, walking, taking photographs and enjoying the local food and hospitality.
