Helping you succeed in tomorrow's world

I am a passionate advocate for the use of legal technology in my work, and work closely with Osborne Clarke's in-house legal technology team, OC Solutions, to deliver greater efficiencies and value to deal and in-house legal teams.

I am a member of the Osborne Clarke Family and Carer's Group, and regularly promote the benefits of shared parental leave among fathers to be at the firm. Check out how my newborn son taught me to be a better lawyer.
