Summary

A driven, meticulous individual currently studying law, with a particular passion for Family Law. Derived from a past occupation teaching at a Performing Arts School, I possess the enthusiasm to connect with a diverse range of people and have a desire to help guide them through some of the most challenging times of their lives. Through my degree, I have developed a range of legal research skills and honed my strong communication skills. I also possess an excellent ability to critically analyse legal issues, as evidenced by achieving a specialised Subject Award in 'Critical Approaches to Current Legal Issues'. I am eager to broaden my developing legal skills and knowledge by undertaking work experience with well-established firms and shadowing experienced legal experts to learn from their insights .
