After moving from Brisbane to study at the College of Law in Melbourne, I was employed with Clancy & Triado. Situated in Hawthorn, the firm is a well regarded provider of legal services in Family Law and Wills & Estates. The wonderfully well rounded staff impressed upon me the collegial nature of the Family Law industry in Melbourne and inspired me to practice predominately in this area once admitted.

After purchasing the firm I previously was employed with throughout the entirety of my undergraduate studies (Byrne Legal Group), I transitioned to Slater & Gordon for my final year of study. While there, I remained in the Family Law and Criminal Law practice group under the guidance of Paul Byrne.

After returning to Australia, I recommenced employment at Byrne Legal Group and continued my studies.

The commencement of my legal experience. The practice was largely based around Family Law, Criminal Law and Disciplinary litigation. Aside from individual private clients, representing the Queensland Police Union in a range of matters including large scale inquiries provided me with valuable experience and exposure into the key public service provider.

Taking a year off from my university studies, I was employed with EF to teach a range of subjects in English at their school in Wuhan China.
