After completing his master's degree in 2024, reading Philanthropic Studies at the University of Kent, Philip is now focused on his legal training, studying towards qualifying as a Chartered Legal Executive lawyer.
Whilst Philip is described by his colleagues as 'details-focused', by applying his natural disposition and significant life experience, he naturally cuts through a situation's complexity to reveal the essence of the matter, subsequently contributing his insights to the team.
Away from work and studies, Philip enjoys reading non-fiction and staying active by running and swimming.
