About

I am an associate in the Finance team and a Notary Public. I have advised on a wide range of transactions including real estate finance, trade finance and entertainment finance.

I have acted for borrowers, senior lenders and mezzanine lenders in a breadth of transactions ranging from real estate development financing, corporate financing and real estate refinancing deals involving institutional lenders. This gives me an insight into the commercial and legal considerations of different types of clients which adds perspective and context to my legal advice.

My training has included trade finance experience at a top tier firm where I advised institutional banks on asset-backed lending agreements such as master participation agreements, receivable purchasing agreements and supply chain finance programmes.

Independently of Fladgate, I am a qualified Notary Public and able to assist with notarising and arranging the legalisation/apostille of documents such as powers of attorney, company documents and property related documents.

I always look to understand my client’s business and concerns using my in-house experience working with a film completion guarantor and a large US technology company. This allows me to understand the importance of risk management to commercial decision-making. I pay particular focus to risk when giving advice by considering the wider picture and assessing whether long-term objectives can be achieved.

Outside of work, I never miss a Formula One race and I enjoy keeping fit and healthy at the gym. Also, my colleagues will attest that I have made a hobby of travelling to as many cities as possible in a single holiday!
