About Me

I am an aspiring legal professional currently completing the T Level Legal Services qualification at Chichester College — a rigorous, industry-focused programme equivalent to three A-Levels, combining academic study with substantial real-world industry placement.

My passion lies at the intersection of law and technology. I believe the future of legal practice will be shaped by those who can bridge traditional legal principles with emerging digital tools — and I am committed to being part of that evolution.

Industry Experience

Work Placement

Tradesconnect

2 Years

Legal & AI Operations

My placement at Tradesconnect extended well beyond the mandatory 45-day requirement — spanning two full years of substantive legal and operational work. Tradesconnect is a digital platform connecting tradespeople and businesses, and I worked directly on the legal infrastructure underpinning its operations.

A defining feature of my time at Tradesconnect was the opportunity to work with AI tools as part of day-to-day legal operations. Rather than viewing AI as a future consideration, I experienced first-hand how it is already reshaping the way legal teams work — from accelerating document review to supporting compliance monitoring. This exposure has given me a practical understanding of AI's role in modern legal practice that goes beyond theoretical knowledge.

Key Responsibilities

  • Legal documentation review — contracts, terms of service, and platform agreements
  • AI-assisted legal operations — document analysis and workflow automation
  • Regulatory compliance support and monitoring
  • Legal research supporting platform policy and operational decisions
  • Professional communication with internal stakeholders on legal matters
