About

I am an associate in the funds, finance and regulatory team at Fladgate. I advise on a variety of banking transactions including acquisition finance, corporate lending, real estate finance and a particular interest in sports finance.

I moved to Fladgate from a large US law firm in the city with a particular focus on leverage finance. Through my experience I have advised large PE sponsors in a variety of transactions however I am always keen to work on a wide spectrum of finance transactions. I always try to bring a human side to complex transactions and I enjoy advising clients through any legal problem.

Outside of work, I enjoy anything sport related whether that is watching or taking part. I go to the gym as often as I can and train MMA to keep up my fitness when that doesn’t clash with any alcohol related social activities.
