Summary
I am a highly committed and motivated law graduate from Swansea University whose intention is to become a qualified solicitor. During my education and part-time work, I have developed communication, organizational, and teamwork skills - all of which are essential to a solicitor, whether it be working towards a deadline, advising clients on a particular issue or building a rapport with them.
