She will be working at the firm’s corporate and commercial practice in Dubai, focusing specifically on transactional work for clients, asset management, and investment funds (AMIF) sector. Her other fields of focus include technology, media, and telecommunications (TMT), and health and life sciences (HLS) sectors.
