Biography
I oversee Hong Kong’s in-house maritime law capability, ensuring the highest quality legal guidance from our team and external counsel. I have practiced as an English lawyer in London and Shanghai, advising owners, charterers and commodities traders, emphasising on dry shipping and shipbuilding litigation, and contract negotiation. My experience includes offshore P&I claims handling and I support our underwriters in reviewing contracts and tailoring cover for offshore, marine infrastructure, heavylift and towage risks. I’m grateful to be part of Asia’s fantastic maritime community. I’m a champion of the arts, and furthering cultural exchange through the shared experience of live performance.
