Get to know me

Formerly a music teacher, I qualified as a Licensed Conveyancer and Commissioner for Oaths in 2015 and have extensive experience in sales, purchases, re-mortgages, transfers, business sales, Lease extensions, shared ownerships, auctions, drafting legal documents such as Deeds of Variations, Transfers of Part and Leases. I have a particular interest in heritage property.

I previously worked for Osborne Clarke acting for major property developers, and in my previous role I was a Head of Conveyancing at a small high street firm.

I pride myself in efficiency, compliance with legal processes, attention to detail, professional development and being approachable and available to clients.

I am also fluent in Russian.

What Our Clients Say

This is the 7th house sale/ purchase I have been involved with and goes down as one of the smoothest and timely. There is plenty of scope for delay or up set in any property sale, and although we were in a good place with the purchaser and chain, we none the less appreciate that everything was handled well by you.
I am pleased with the resulting house sale and very happy with the service I received from you.

My greatest achievement

Originally from outside the UK, I successfully transitioned from a career teaching music to law, beginning as a legal secretary and advancing to Senior Associate. Throughout this journey, I also performed on stage for a decade with an amateur dramatics society, all while balancing the demands of raising children.
