Summary

I hold a double degree in Law and Commerce from Deakin University and am currently completing my Practical Legal Training (PLT) at Leo Cussen Centre for Law. With over fifteen years of experience across various sectors, including banking, hospitality, finance, management, retail, and academia, I have undertaken policy clinic projects focused on cyber data breaches, the UniSuper Legal Practice Program, and the Victoria Bar Barrister Shadowing Program during my studies. Additionally, I have served as a volunteer student mentor at Deakin University. I am expected to be eligible for admission to the Supreme Court of Victoria in March 2025.
