I was an immigration officer for several years and, after becoming a solicitor, an immigration manager in Big 4 professional services companies. This experience has provided me with a focus on achieving the best outcomes for clients, having reference to wider global mobility issues and being creative in finding solutions that work.
Drawing on my practical experience, I try to identify any related legal issues at an early stage of each assignment. Clients frequently comment that I develop a full understanding of what they require by asking the right questions and can then find creative solutions to their immigration issues.​
It has been a privilege to have been listed as one of the UK’s leading practitioners in every edition of the Legal 500 since 2015. I was individually commended in the Financial Times Innovative Lawyers Europe Awards in 2019 for research and analysis conducted following a Freedom of Information Act request regarding Certificate of Sponsorship allocations. This featured as a headline news story across numerous national publications in June 2018. I write articles as often as I can and am a keen blogger and Twitter user.​
