What I'm looking for

I am looking for a remote legal role that fosters growth and collaboration.

I am a highly organized individual with a strong passion for the legal sector, particularly in the field of Intellectual Property. My academic background has equipped me with critical thinking skills and the ability to communicate effectively. I thrive in team environments and excel at problem-solving, which has been demonstrated through my various roles and experiences.

Throughout my education at The University of Sussex and The University of Manchester, I have actively engaged in student representation and ambassador roles, enhancing my leadership and interpersonal skills. My work experience ranges from customer service to marketing, where I consistently achieved high performance and fostered positive relationships with clients and colleagues alike.

I am currently seeking a fully remote role in the legal field, where I can apply my skills and passion for law to contribute meaningfully to an organization. I am eager to continue learning and growing in a dynamic environment that values collaboration and innovation.
