From the moment I began studying law, family law clicked with me right from the start. I’m drawn to this field because it’s people-oriented and purpose-driven—I come to work each day knowing that what I do genuinely matters. I love being part of our family law team and finding meaningful solutions for clients navigating challenging life transitions.

 

After being admitted to the Supreme Court of NSW in 2017, I joined Solari and Stock’s Family Law Team in late 2021, where I apply my background to navigate complex family law matters with both precision and compassion.

 

My academic journey reflects my commitment to excellence. I hold a Juris Doctor from the University of Technology Sydney and a Bachelor’s Degree in International and Global Studies from the University of Sydney. I’ve also completed a Masters in Applied Law (Family Law) to further deepen my expertise. Aligning with my firm’s values, I’ve developed skills in Collaborative Practice and maintain active membership in the Southern Sydney Collaborative Professionals Inc.

 

What truly distinguishes my experience is my three-year tenure as an Associate to an Appeals Judge in the Family Court of Australia (now Division 1of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia). This prestigious role gave me unique insights into judicial reasoning, court processes, and strategic approaches to resolving complex family disputes—knowledge I now leverage to benefit my clients.

I’ve been honoured to present on specialized family law topics at various practitioners’ associations throughout NSW, sharing my perspective and expertise with colleagues in the field.

 

When I’m not advocating for clients, I love indulging in a good long lunch. I’m also a proud Sydney Swans supporter and enjoy spending most of my free time with my young family.

 

A fact few people might know about me is that I once won a CWA blue ribbon for making my great-grandmother’s fruit cake—a cherished family tradition.

 

I believe what makes me effective as a family lawyer is balancing professional expertise with genuine empathy and a collaborative approach to helping clients navigate challenging transitions in their lives.
