My passion is helping public and private developers and contractors to plan and deliver complex projects. This includes all aspects of procurement and contract preparation across the health, education, entertainment, justice, property development, renewable energy, telecommunications and transport sectors, with a particular focus on public-private partnerships.

I focus on being highly responsive to my clients’ needs, and know how important it is to provide timely, commercially focused advice.
