Professional background

I started my career at a top-tier firm in Australia where I assisted start-ups through to multinational corporations with SaaS and software licensing, outsourcing, mergers and acquisitions, privacy and brand licensing. 

I have a particular interest in emerging technology such as blockchain, AI and autonomous vehicles.  I also have experience with legal tech solutions, including development of legal advice apps and use of tools which automate contract creation and review.
