Six years ago I was working as a busy corporate finance lawyer, when Wragge & Co presented me with an opportunity. We were on the cusp of a technology explosion. It would be all pervading and would affect all aspects of our business. The firm needed a partner to focus on this area – it was critical we got it right.

I had really enjoyed my life as corporate finance lawyer. The meetings were long but I met some outstanding individuals, I developed a real liking for black coffee and pizza.
