About

I am a lawyer with training in international law and a practice grounded in domestic legal work. My academic and professional background has shaped a sustained interest in how legal institutions operate in practice, particularly where law seeks to protect individuals and where it falls short of learning from lived experience.

I studied public international law and its related areas in an academic setting that emphasised analytical rigour, institutional accountability, and the protection of individuals within complex legal regimes. My work has required engaging with difficult factual situations, identifying applicable legal frameworks, and articulating coherent legal arguments across intersecting areas of law.

Alongside my academic training, I have worked in legal and institutional contexts that exposed me early to questions of rights, responsibility, and governance. These experiences continue to inform how I read judgments, think about legal frameworks, and approach questions of justice and power.

This site is a space for writing that grows out of that engagement. Here, I reflect on international law, domestic legal questions, and the quieter ways law shapes everyday life. The writing is not intended to offer easy conclusions, but to think carefully, critically, and honestly about the role law plays in the world we inhabit.
