I qualified as a solicitor in 2010 having trained at a UK top-100 national firm. I went on to work in-house at the British Dental Association for 10 years where I headed up the NHS and Business advice team. I joined Porter Dodson as an associate in 2021.
I predominantly work with clients in the healthcare and primary medical care sector. I advise on NHS regulatory and contract matters, particularly specialist healthcare contracts, performers list matters and contract disputes between NHS England and primary care contractors. I now specialise in employment law as well as being an accredited interpersonal mediator.
I enjoy building personal relationships with clients and providing specialist technical legal advice at a practical level that they can understand.
I enjoy dancing, playing the piano and the theatre.
