About

I excel in helping borrowers and lenders navigate complex loan documents, security documents such as debentures, share charges, corporate and personal guarantees and priority arrangements such as intercreditor agreements, subordination agreements and deeds of priority. As a trusted advisor, I take a client-centric, tailored approach to each legal challenge.

I am a banking and finance lawyer with over ten years of experience acting both for large corporate and midmarket borrowers and financial institutions such as HSBC, Barclays, NatWest, Virgin Money and Coutts.

My extensive experience includes general corporate lending (leverage or investment grade), acquisition finance, and real estate finance, such as care homes or hotels, on both a national and international level.

I am an advocate for diversity, equity & inclusion, championing women's rights in the legal profession.
