I studied Law and Political Science in Australia and was admitted as a NSW Solicitor. I moved to the UK and gained experience with an interesting variety of businesses in London including a life sciences start up, boutique merchant bank, international investment bank and US law firm.
I enjoy working at Clyde & Co as the people are excellent, the business is well run, it is a progressive environment, my responsibilities are broad and varied, my role has evolved and I feel like my contribution makes a difference.

When I returned to Australia I changed career and joined the Sydney office of a well-known specialist legal recruitment agency and later relocated to join the London office where I was a Consultant on the International Desk working for Private Practice and In-House clients across the globe. 

 In 2008 I took to opportunity to join Clyde & Co as the Resourcing Manager, where I felt fortunate to work in conjunction with an excellent team, Partners and management from across the firm.  In 2014 the firm relocated me to Singapore as part of a regional management team to support lateral partner recruitment and growth across Asia Pacific (APAC) and HR in South East Asia and Australia.

I enjoy working at Clyde & Co because the people are excellent, the business is well run, it is a progressive environment, my responsibilities are broad and varied, my role has evolved and I know that my contribution makes a difference. Clyde & Co is a truly international law firm able to retain the culture and joined up approach even with significant global expansion.
