Summary

A graduate of the University of Lincoln with a 2:1 LLB in Law and Criminology, pursuing a career as a solicitor. A motivated person with a strong work ethic and keen to learn and develop new skills. During my time at university, I developed many transferable skills such as time management, prioritisation, and research skills from both independent and group-based studies. I have undertaken work experience placements in commercial and maritime law firms, which is the practice in which I'd like to specialise.
