Background: Luisa studied at the University of Leeds and College of Law, York. She spent seven years at Pinsent Masons and worked as in-house legal counsel in the financial service sector before joining Berg Legal.
Career highlights: ‘Having a UK regulatory authority - the Information Commisioner’s Office - tell me that they agreed with my conclusions and advice to a government department after undertaking a two-year project. A great sigh of relief!’

Best piece of advice: Plan ahead.
Outside of work: Luisa is ‘just a little bit obsessed with overseas travel’. She is a keen cook and enjoys testing her latest creations out on friends. Luisa also enjoys walking and films. She lives with her partner, Ian.
