I am a UK-qualified solicitor with extensive experience advising on privacy, data protection, regulatory compliance and the responsible use of artificial intelligence. My background includes legal and compliance roles within a leading UK law firm, a financial regulator, financial services and the not-for-profit sector, giving me a practical understanding of how legal and regulatory requirements apply across a wide range of organisations.

I advise businesses on compliance with the UK GDPR, EU GDPR, PECR and broader international data protection requirements, including relevant US privacy frameworks.

I can assist with the drafting and review of privacy notices, data protection policies, data processing agreements (DPAs) and records of processing activities (ROPA), as well as preparing responses to data subject rights requests (including DSARs), assessing personal data breaches, conducting lawful basis and legitimate interests assessments (LIAs), advising on international data transfers (including transfer risk assessments), and carrying out wider privacy and compliance reviews.

I also advise on AI governance and compliance, including the assessment of AI tools and suppliers, Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), AI risk assessments, automated decision-making and profiling, transparency requirements, AI governance frameworks, and the development of practical policies for the responsible deployment of AI technologies. My experience includes working closely with business areas such as information security, procurement, knowledge and HR to assess new products and services, negotiate supplier documentation, manage privacy and confidentiality risks, and translate complex legal requirements into pragmatic, commercially focused advice.

Whether you are a start-up launching a new product, an established business strengthening its privacy programme, or an organisation responding to a specific data protection or AI compliance issue, I provide clear, practical advice tailored to your business and commercial objectives.
