As a law graduate with a focus on family and criminal law, I work in a dynamic legal practice that provides representation across both jurisdictions.

My role involves supporting senior practitioners in all stages of litigation and dispute resolution. This includes conducting in-depth legal research on complex family law and criminal law issues, analysing legislation and case law, and preparing legal memoranda and advice for internal use and client consideration.
I am responsible for drafting a range of court documents including Applications, Responses, Affidavits, Case Outlines, Chronologies, and Submissions for proceedings in both the Family Court and criminal jurisdictions.
My role also involves direct client engagement attending client interviews, taking instructions, maintaining client contact throughout the lifecycle of a matter, and explaining legal processes in clear, compassionate terms, particularly in sensitive family matters. I attend court with counsel, taking notes of proceedings and providing immediate procedural assistance as required.

Murdoch University

12.2023 - 12.2023

I had the opportunity to assist Schellie-Jane Price in teaching the Law and Technology unit as a first graduate of her unit. The program ran for two weeks, with a different guest lecturer invited each day to present on a specific topic. I thoroughly enjoyed contributing to the unit, as it reminded me of my roots—I come from a family of educators, and teaching is a passion that comes naturally to me.

During my time, I helped predominantly as an Auditor within the External Audit division. My contributions encompassed aiding businesses in accomplishing successful transactions and furnishing our clients with both financial and strategic advice.
