I am an Associate in the Employment team at Lewis Silkin, advising employers and individuals on a broad range of contentious and non-contentious matters. I have a particular interest in contentious work, including advising on Employment Tribunal claims and High Court litigation. I also have significant experience in workplace investigations, having conducted a sensitive and complex investigation involving numerous witnesses and allegations of inappropriate language and behaviour spanning several years on a TV production set.
During my training contract at the firm, I gained broad experience across a number of practice areas. I spent 8 months with the Employment team, focusing on contentious and investigations matters. I also completed a secondment to the Employment Legal team at Creative Artists Agency, a leading entertainment and sports agency, where I provided comprehensive support on a wide range of employment and HR matters across the company's global operations. I further spent 6 months in the Digital, Creative and Commerce team, advising clients on matters ranging from general commercial agreements, including sale of goods and services and drafting or reviewing terms and conditions, through to IP-heavy deals such as sponsorships and branded content agreements, and advertising-specific work including media buying agreements and advice on advertising regulation and clearance. I then spent 6 months in our Dispute Resolution team, obtaining extensive experience in debt recovery and commercial disputes, including obtaining injunctive relief and managing fast-moving matters.
I am a member of the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion group at Lewis Silkin, specifically the Gender group. I am also an active member of the firm's Sports Business group - as a keen netball player and an all-round sports enthusiast, I am particularly interested in gaining experience in the sports industry as well as the wider media and entertainment sector.
Born in Milan, I am fluent in Italian and enjoy applying my language skills to my work.
Prior to qualification, I graduated with first-class honours in BA History from the London School of Economics and Political Science. I then undertook the PGDL at BPP University, before completing the Solicitors Qualifying Examination in 2024, passing both SQE1 and SQE2 in the top quintile.
