I am a corporate and capital markets lawyer in the corporate group of Bird & Bird resident in Hong Kong, with extensive experience working in the London office.
I have an international practice that focuses on a wide variety of capital markets, mergers and acquisitions and other general corporate matters, and I also advise clients in relation to private equity and venture capital investments as well as banking and finance transactions. Prior to joining Bird & Bird, I served as an associate in the Hong Kong office of another leading international law firm.
In Hong Kong, my clients include Hong Kong Stock Exchange listed companies, Chinese state-owned enterprises, financial institutions, and companies across a wide variety of sectors. In London, I have worked with a number of Main Market and AIM listed companies, investment banks and nominated advisers as well as venture capital and venture debt funds.
I was seconded to the legal and corporate secretarial department of New World Development Company Limited, a leading Hong Kong conglomerate, from July to August 2022, which provided me with a unique insight into the issues clients face day to day and a deeper understanding as to what clients require from their legal advisers.
I graduated from the London School of Economics and Political Science with a Bachelor of Laws and then obtained a Master of Laws from Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., specializing in U.S. securities laws. I am dual qualified as an attorney in New York and as a solicitor in Hong Kong.
