Biography

What was your first-ever job?

Selling men’s shoes in Debenhams.

If you weren’t a lawyer, what would you have been?

I originally qualified as a registered nurse, so I imagine I would still be doing that!

What’s the best thing about your job?

The variety of people I get to meet, as well as the sense of satisfaction I get from being able to help people with their problems. Dispelling the myth that solicitors are intimidating and unapproachable.
