Profile
I am the Project Coordinator of qLegal, the award-winning commercial law clinic at Queen Mary, University of London. Prior to joining qLegal, I was a solicitor in private practice for 10 years, before running my own business and then qualifying as a Prince2 project management practitioner.
I coordinate the qLegal entrepreneurship law clinic, which provides pro bono legal advice to entrepreneurs and tech start-ups. I am responsible for managing the client journey and the successful delivery of pro bono advice from student legal advisers. I have a keen interest in innovation and process improvement, including through the use of legal technology.
With the rest of the qLegal team, I also design and delivers a range of experiential learning programmes for students, with an emphasis on client care and case management skills.
I have a degree in law and is a Prince2 practitioner. I am also a Mental Health First Aider and have recently published an article in the International Journal of Clinical Legal Education on law student mental health.
