Founder of SH E&C IP Consulting and Senior Partner at Shanghai Hanyuan Law Firm. A UK-trained and China-qualified lawyer (LLM, University of Edinburgh) whose twenty-five-year career spans early service at the Shanghai No. 2 Intermediate People's Court, senior in-house roles at the Business Software Alliance and Microsoft (China), and private practice in Shanghai. Regularly engaged by Microsoft, Dassault Systèmes, Siemens, and Altium in support of their IP protection programmes across Greater China and the wider region.

Joined SH E&C IP Consulting as Executive Director after fifteen years building and leading the License Compliance programme across Asia for Dassault Systèmes — a tenure that unlocked hundreds of millions of dollars in additional software revenue and brought thousands of companies into legitimate licensing relationships across fourteen jurisdictions, from Greater China through Korea, Japan, ASEAN, and Australasia. Now applies that sector specialism, partner network, and enforcement playbook directly to Heads of License Compliance at other software publishers pursuing their objectives in the region. A twenty-five-year career with the Hong Kong Police Force — criminal investigation, intelligence analysis, executive protection, public-order policing, and major-event planning — preceded his move into compliance.

Director of SH E&C IP Consulting's specialised team delivering software licence-compliance solutions for global publishers across Asia. Has advised Shanghai Hanyuan since 2017 on software copyright and licence-compliance matters for clients including Microsoft, Dassault Systèmes, Hexagon, and Trimble. A Chinese-qualified lawyer and a Fellow of the ACCA, with dual degrees in Economics and Accounting from the University of Edinburgh; an earlier career in financial and corporate management, including a CFO role in the United Kingdom, gives her work a commercial register that pure-legal practitioners often lack.
