With almost 4 years of hands-on experience in legal support roles, I am now seeking a fresh challenge that allows one to explore the evolving dynamics of legal practice.

My passion lies in advocating for the rights of individuals, particularly within Criminal and Family law. I am committed to make a meaningful impact while earnest for the opportunity to learn and grow as a legal professional.
