Summary

I am a driven and passionate individual who has a strong interest in the complexities of property law. As a person, I have always been hardworking and determined, as shown through my academic success and work experience in the legal industry. I am seeking a new opportunity in a larger Law Firm to help me expand my knowledge, create new connections and challenge my abilities. I believe that my experience working in two Law Firms has equipped me with not only an enhanced understanding of the law, but the soft skills that are vital for success in the legal industry.
