International trade lawyer.
I am a trade lawyer working on trade in services, FTAs and trade policy. Currently, as an Associate at WTI Advisors, I analyse the domestic regulations on services trade to understand the market access requirements across countries and the services sector.
I am curious about regional trade integration, digital trade and trade in services and addressing the policy questions on sustainability and critical minerals. On the side, I am teaching myself data analysis to visualise the patterns behind trade.
