What I'm looking for

I seek legal roles where I can apply energy and corporate law expertise, grow advocacy skills, work on complex transactions or policy, and join a collaborative, client-focused team offering progression.

I am an LLB (Eng/NI) Law with Energy (Hons) graduate from the University of Dundee, currently undertaking the LPC and an MSc in Law, Business and Management at the University of Law, Manchester.

I specialised in energy law (international oil & gas, renewable energy, energy projects and environmental law) and completed an honours project comparing law and policy in Saudi Arabia's energy transition.

I have practical experience from roles at Parkview Solicitors & Higher Court Advocates, Kenworthy's Chambers and More2Life, providing legal research, shadowing barristers, client correspondence, document management and processing equity release with anti-fraud/AML checks.

I bring technical literacy (Proclaim/Eclipse, DPR, DPS, MS Office), programming exposure (Python), strong communication and public speaking skills, and cross-cultural adaptability informed by international study and travel.
