Legal team size: 50-100

What are the projects that you are most proud of working on over the past 12 months?

Over the past 12 months, I have focused on negotiating and structuring high-stakes commercial agreements that support the evolving landscape of streaming and content distribution. These deals have strengthened key partnerships, driven growth, and reinforced our strategic positioning in a competitive industry. Beyond commercial work, I continue to spearhead pro bono initiatives, ensuring our legal team remains engaged in meaningful social impact efforts while driving business success.

Based on your experiences in the past year, are there any trends in the legal or business world that you are keeping an eye on that you think other in-house lawyers should be mindful of?

Over the past year, I have closely followed several key trends shaping the legal and business landscape, particularly in the streaming and content distribution space. As the industry evolves, contract negotiations are becoming more complex, with a greater focus on flexibility, content rights, and innovative revenue models. In-house lawyers must navigate these dynamics while ensuring strategic alignment with business goals.

What are the key things you prioritise to get the most out of your team?

To get the most out of my team, I prioritise clarity, collaboration, and empowerment. Clear communication of goals and expectations ensures alignment, while fostering a collaborative environment allows for innovative problem-solving and stronger outcomes. I also focus on enabling team members to take ownership of their work, providing guidance and support while giving them the autonomy to grow.
