About

I'm an Associate in Lewis Silkin's Employment team, having qualified in August 2025. I advise a range of clients including regulated companies and clients in the creative industries on the full range of employment issues. I specialise in workplace investigations and also regularly act on complex, high-value Employment Tribunal litigation.

I trained at Lewis Silkin, completing seats in Corporate and Dispute Resolution as well as two seats in Employment. Before starting my training contract, I worked in Lewis Silkin's Employment and Immigration teams, studying the LPC part-time at the University of Law alongside my role. I hold a law degree from the University of the West of England.

Outside client work, I'm actively involved in the firm's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion network as a member of both the Gender group and Lewis SilkOut.
