Growing up I didn\u2019t know anyone who worked in law and I understand how difficult it can be when you have no contacts in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>I studied Law (International) at the University of Leeds and throughout my time as a student volunteered with my local Citizens Advice Bureau. After graduating I took part in the PwC vacation scheme in 2017, then completing the LPC in Manchester. I have now started my training contract with PwC in September 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Diversity is important to me as it allows for a more creative and representative workforce who can in turn help better provide value for our clients. I believe those already working within law have a responsibility to positively help open the profession to everyone, regardless of their background.<\/p>\n<p>I am happy to help answer any questions you may have, so please do get in touch!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12569,"template":"","acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.9 -
