Having successfully acquiring 3 A-Levels at Finham Park School, I sought out an apprenticeship at Feldon Dunsmore to gain valuable ‘hands on’ training whilst also gaining my law degree (without the burden of student debt). The apprenticeship lasts for 5 years in total, with the first 2 years allowing me to gain my paralegal qualification and the final 3 allowing me to work toward my qualification as a commercial property solicitor.  This means that upon completion, I will have 5 years’ worth of experience working in property law.

My A-Levels consisted of Spanish, Law and Psychology, achieving high grades in all and using my analytical skills to excel in the legal field. Most notably one of my most in depth studies was during my languages IRP( individual research project), discussing and analysing the impact of Pablo Escobar on modern day Colombia and the legal system. 

My interest in law arose from analysing its dynamic nature in my studies and seeing how such a small change in the law can have such a large impact. Due to this, I began working at a local law firm in Coventry to gain some valuable legal insight into how a firm runs and to see the law in action after only having experience in hospitality previously. Additionally, I look forward to being able to use my skills to help clients achieve their goals, whether that’s developing a property or completing a commercial transaction.

Outside of work, I love going to the gym, although I’m not the most consistent and browsing luxury holiday destinations such as the Maldives (which hopefully one day I can go to).

My favourite place to visit is …

Dominican Republic

If I won the lottery I would …

Buy my favourite cars with a big house to go with them and use the rest to invest in properties and donate to dog charities.
