I am an Associate in the commercial disputes team.

I assist clients in resolving both domestic and cross-border disputes across a range of forums, including High Court litigation as well as arbitration.

I have particular experience of disputes involving breach of contract, negligence, data rights and privacy, and insurance as well as group litigation.

Before joining Lewis Silkin, I worked at both a US law firm and a litigation boutique, where I gained experience across a variety of industries including financial services, sport, education, aviation, shipping and logistics.
