About

Practice Areas

I am an associate in Bird & Bird's projects team, focusing on public sector, utilities, and private sector procurement. I have experience in supporting both public and private sector clients.

I have previously worked in central government and, therefore, have had first-hand experience of a public authority's ways of working and the external and internal pressures a public authority may encounter. I draw on this insight to take a practical and collaborative approach when advising both public and private sector clients to ensure that project objectives are achieved.
