Summary
German-speaking lawyer who graduated from Monash University with a Bachelor of Laws, a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Arts with Honours in German language and literature.
My extensive litigation experience spans commercial, property, employment and estate and guardianship matters in the Supreme Court, County Court, Magistrates Court, Federal Magistrates Court, the Fair Work Commission and the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT).
My keen interest in AFL grass roots football saw my appointment as the first female board member to the Board of the Northern Football League in early 2012. I am also member of the Law Institute of Victoria’s Litigation Lawyers – Alternate Dispute Resolution Committee where I apply my considerable legal skills to working towards improvement and change to alternate dispute resolution policy for Victorian lawyers.
