My Professional Background

I joined Attwaters Jameson Hill in March 2021. I am a Solicitor in the Private Client department, dealing with Probate, Estate administration, Wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney. I enjoy the challenges my role provides; I am a people person and enjoy being able to offer advice and guidance to clients at a difficult time.

I studied Law at the University of Bedfordshire and graduated in 2013. In 2015, I attended De Montfort University to study my Legal Practice Course part-time whilst working as a Paralegal. I joined the Private Client department at a firm in Bedford in 2015, where I worked for two years as a Paralegal. I then undertook my training contract and qualified in August 2019.

About me

I grew up in Leicestershire where I lived with my mum, dad, and brother until I moved to Bedford for university. I now live in Bedfordshire with my husband and our dog Hugo, and I travel home to see family and friends whenever I can.

There is no doubt my favourite drink is prosecco. I am a foodie so it is hard to choose a favourite food; however, because they go hand in hand, I would say Italian food to go with my glass of prosecco! I like keeping fit, taking Hugo for long walks, baking, and watching crime documentaries.

My dream job growing up? I was a bit of an entrepreneur – I would ask my parents to buy boxes of sweets so that I could set up a sweet stall outside my house and sell these to my neighbours. I also wanted to be a wedding planner and I even made business cards!

I would like to say I have no fears or phobias but actually, I have too many to name. I should say my ideal desert island companion would be my fiancé, but I think I would have a better chance of survival with Rambo!
