About me
I’m an associate in the Commercial team in Leeds, specialising in data protection, intellectual property and technology-related contracts. I support clients on everything from international data transfers and DSARs to software agreements, licensing and IP strategy.
My clients include NHS trusts, health tech companies, start-ups, consultancies and professional services firms, and I regularly advise on commercial, data and IP aspects of M&A transactions.
My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. I work closely with clients to help simplify complex legal concepts and deliver practical solutions that support their wider commercial goals.
I also create and deliver bespoke training for businesses, especially in the healthtech sector, and contribute to the Propel Healthtech Accelerator, supporting international companies landing in the UK.
I studied Law at Newcastle University before completing the LPC at BPP University in Leeds. Outside of work, I enjoy travelling having backpacked through China, Southeast Asia and Japan.
