About

A little bit more about me…

As mentioned on my home page, I’m a Chartered Engineer, as well as dual-qualified European and UK Patent Attorney. Before joining a technology start up called SeeChange about a year ago, I was responsible for the Legal Operations team in Arm’s global legal department. Prior to this I managed ARM’s patent and trademarks teams, during which time I supported a wide range of IP strategy and global IP policy development matters for ARM. I also holds multiple NED and Board positions, including holding the recent position of President of the UK IP Federation, during which time I often advised the UK government in the field of UK Innovation & IP. Before joining Arm in 2012, I worked in a private practice law firm in Cambridge, UK. I’m now responsible for all operations, legal, IP and procurement at SeeChange.

I was named as an IAM ‘World Leading IP Strategist’ for 2017, and as a Managing IP ‘Corporate IP Star’ in 2018 & 2019. I was a national award winner for my Corporate Diversity and Inclusion Leadership work in 2018.

Outside of work, I like to travel (when not in lock down due to Covid), as well as spend time with my family and friends. I’m also a keen rambler and an avid Man Utd supporter.
