I graduated from the University of Limerick with a Bachelor of Laws in 2008 and went on to pursue a Master of Laws (Commercial) at the University College Dublin in 2009. I trained in Arthur Cox, Dublin and upon my qualification in 2013, joined the firm’s Corporate Group. After working in Arthur Cox for a further three years, I moved to the London office of Latham & Watkins where I am currently a corporate associate with a practice focused on mergers, acquisitions, restructurings, joint ventures and general corporate matters.
Studying law at the University of Limerick prepares one well for a variety of marketplace careers, as students are offered the opportunity to obtain invaluable exposure to the skills, knowledge, and support of some of the top legal academics in the country. From a personal perspective, the programme offered me exposure to an extensive amount of legal theory; an experience which equipped me with a solid understanding of, and ever-developing interest in, law. It also equipped me with the ability to adapt quickly to new situations, methodologies, and subject matters, as well as perform effectively under pressure. To this day, the skills that I acquired during my degree help me to provide clients with creative legal solutions to complex challenges.
