About

I am a Corporate Legal Director. I have been working with clients across the full breadth of corporate advisory and transactional work for more than 10 years.

My expertise lies in supporting ideas and people led businesses through corporate milestones (early stages, shareholder exits, fundraising and private M&A). I regularly advise clients across the creative and digital sectors, with an increasing focus on interactive entertainment and social media.

I am also a core team member behind The Collective by Lewis Silkin – our thought leadership offering for creative, innovative, tech and brand-centric businesses to prepare and adapt to the ever-changing business environment. Being at the forefront of thought leadership for my clients is something I am passionate about.

Promoting gender equality and diversity more broadly is another focus of mine. I am a member of our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion group and was formerly the ExCo member for our Gender Group. I have also previously been a member of Bloom, a network for women in communications, and a mentor through the network.
