I have experience advising in the following areas across a number of industries (including for example, fashion, sport, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, travel and online payments): e-commerce and retail, consumer protection, digital media, marketing and advertising.
In particular I have experience in assisting retail clients with new product launches (including preparation of website terms and conditions, privacy policies and advising on marketing strategies from a legal perspective including prize promotions and competitions and use of social media platforms), refreshing and updating refund and returns policies.
I also regularly advise, review and negotiate a variety of general business to business commercial agreements (sale of goods, digital and professional services); cloud/ software subscriptions and on-premise deployment and IP licenses.
I actually started my career as a trainee at Taylor Vinters in 2015, before moving to a boutique commercial and technology firm when I was two years’ qualified. I gained more niche experience in the consumer protection and digital media sphere before returning as a Senior Associate in December 2021. It’s nice to come back to familiar territory and work with colleagues and clients both old and new!

In my free time I like to swim with my local club and have competed at national and international level for some time. I particularly enjoy cold water and open water swimming and recently placed 3rd overall in the 10km Thames Marathon swim from Henley to Marlow. I am also a keen scuba diver and have dived all over the Caribbean and Mexico and am currently working to obtain my PADI Master Scuba Diver recognition.
I’d be happy to chat to you about how we can help you with any consumer-related queries. Please feel free to email me.
