My role

I advise local government, those who deal with local government, and the wider public sector on the application of local government law, governance matters, the public procurement regime and state aid.

My experience

I trained at Anthony Collins Solicitors and qualified in 2011. I spent several years as an in-house solicitor for a local authority advising on procurement, state aid, contracts, governance, academies and waste law. In 2015, I was awarded the Law Society Diploma in local government law and practice, with distinction, and the Local Government Legal Society Trust prize for best candidate.
