We are a *team of bright minds

I am a Director in the Real Estate Finance Department having joined Lawrence Stephens in 2013.

I advise and act for a wide of range of clients in the sector, including bridging lenders, banks and private lenders based both in England and Wales and overseas.

I have specialist experience in acting for and assisting with the growth of new lenders and challenger banks. Notably, I assisted a private lender from inception to the growth of a significant loan book which exceeded £100m, to then achieving its banking licence.  I was also part of the team at Lawrence Stephens that assisted a Banking client grow a loan book of £60m to £2.5b in under 3 years.

I have a wealth of experience advising businesses, entrepreneurs and developers in connection with real estate acquisition and disposal work which includes large-scale portfolios, development sites, commercial acquisitions and general property investments.

Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time in the gym, am an avid football fan and a keen traveller having explored different corners of the world.
