My hobbies: I perform on viola with the London Phoenix Orchestra in their 5x annual concerts at venues such as St John’s, Smith Square and Cadogan Hall, Sloane Square. I also enjoy cycling, swimming and playing racket sports.
My alternative career choice: If I had not pursued a career in law, I …… would have pursued concert performance on the piano, having been playing since the age of four and continuing to give solo performances in parallel with my legal career.
