Profile:

I am a solicitor at Winckworth Sherwood, having qualified into the Planning team in October 2022. During my training contract, I had seats in the Real Estate, Planning, Banking & Finance and Construction teams.

I studied French and Linguistics at the University of Edinburgh. Following my degree, I volunteered at Citizens Advice before starting the GDL a year later at the University of Law having secured a training contract at Winckworth Sherwood after taking part in their summer vacation scheme. I continued to work at Citizens Advice part-time while completing the GDL and LPC.

Particularly while I was at Citizens Advice, I experienced the benefits of having a very diverse team with people bringing different experiences and skills to the workplace. At my current firm, Winckworth Sherwood, diversity and social mobility is really important, the firm is taking part in several social mobility schemes and taking steps to reduce inequality and create as diverse a workforce as possible and I am excited to be a part of this.
