I focus my practice on corporate finance and commercial transactions. My experience includes advising companies, venture/growth funds and other financial institutions on corporate finance matters ranging from venture capital/private equity, mergers & acquisitions and joint ventures.

I advise companies, venture/growth funds and other financial institutions on venture capital/private equity investments, mergers & acquisitions and joint ventures. I also have experience in advising issuers and underwriters on initial public offerings in Hong Kong.

Prior to joining MinterEllison, I practiced at the Hong Kong office of another international law firm. I am admitted to practice in Hong Kong.

Other than my Juris Doctor degree and Postgraduate Certificate in Laws in Hong Kong, I hold a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science.
