After qualification, I joined the London offices of private practice firms Harbottle & Lewis, Addleshaw Goddard and RPC as a TMT specialist and Company Commercial lawyer before moving in-house to AIG Europe as their Senior Commercial Counsel & DPO. I held other in-house senior roles at SilverRail (Expedia Group), Expedia, fintech company Bink, General Counsel for Moteefe and Head of Legal (Interim) for Secret Escapes.
Legal Specialties
As an experienced commercial contracts lawyer and negotiator, I have helped both supplier and customer-side clients to achieve their business goals. I’ve advised start-up platform businesses on business-to-business SaaS agreements and SLAs through to supporting household name corporates on their major multi-million pound outsourcing projects, including in heavily regulated sectors such as financial services, telecoms and utilities. I’ve gained a breadth of legal experience, including contract/consumer law, corporate law and governance, M&A, IP, AI/technology, Data Privacy/GDPR and dispute management & resolution.
Having held Head of Legal and GC roles, I also have a good understanding of how to create and maintain business value and how to balance this against managing legal risk and compliance, as well as being comfortable working with senior management, boards and key external stakeholders such as lenders, investors, shareholders and regulators.
