I am a highly experienced commercial and corporate lawyer, qualified in both Scots and English law, with an impressive track record in a range of areas including joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions, equity investments, commercial contracts, corporate governance and risk management.
I spent time at a number of the large corporate law firms – immediately before joining Kergan Stewart in 2013, now Davidson Chalmers Stewart, I was a Partner at Brodies. Over nearly 25 years in practice I have developed specialist expertise in both the food and drink sector and the life sciences industry, and have the ability to manage complex transactions very effectively. My clients include businesses at all stages of the growth cycle, from start up to listed public companies.
My non executive and voluntary posts, together with my role as general counsel for a number of businesses, helps me to understand the many challenges facing growing companies today and to provide commercial and practical advice. I also tutor on corporate law on the Diploma in Legal Practice at Glasgow University.
In my spare time, I enjoy the Scottish fresh air and spend time gardening, walking with my kids and dog, and doing yoga. I also volunteer with DSL.
