What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters professional growth and allows me to contribute to impactful legal work.

I am an ambitious Attorney-at-Law with over three years of experience in corporate and commercial law. My journey has been marked by a strong academic background and a commitment to continuous growth. I have honed my skills in legal research, contract review, and regulatory compliance, which have equipped me to contribute effectively to organizational success.

Currently, I serve as a Legal Research Officer at the Office of the Parliament, where I prepare research notes and legal opinions, draft and review various contracts, and liaise with cross-functional departments. My role also involves preparing case digests and legal presentations, showcasing my ability to communicate complex legal concepts clearly and effectively.

Throughout my career, I have actively participated in initiatives such as the Women Parliamentarians of Trinidad and Tobago and have been recognized for my contributions to legislative processes. I am dedicated to leveraging my legal expertise to support and enhance the operations of any organization I am part of.
