What I'm looking for

I’m eager to grow my practice within Ninewells' Energy and Corporate & Commercial teams.

At Calmhill Partners, I draft, review and negotiate commercial contracts, including a Power Purchase Agreement for a power plant. I also advise on commercial and regulatory matters and manage court processes and pleadings to strict deadlines.

Previously, at the Nigerian Ports Authority, I drafted and reviewed contracts and researched maritime, commercial and administrative law. At the University of Lagos, I led research and editorial review for the Oil and Gas Journal and co-organised an Energy Expo; I’m eager to grow my practice in energy and corporate-commercial law.
