Prior to this, I graduated with a first class Law degree from the University of Liverpool in 2017. I am due to commence my training contract at Gibson Dunn in August 2021.<\/p>\n<p>I attended a state school in Newham, East London and was raised in a low-income household, which in my case contributed to starting off in the legal industry with no legal connections. At the age of 16, I remember first stepping into a Magic Circle Law firm which, at the time, was immensely daunting.<\/p>\n<p>Through diversity platforms, such as Aspiring Solicitors, I was able to build my network and develop my confidence. It was then through attending various law firm open days and fairs that I was able to secure two vacation schemes, which led to two training contract offers.<\/p>\n<p>I am extremely passionate about helping individuals from socially disadvantaged and ethnic minority backgrounds break into the legal industry.
