Prior to starting pupillage, Alice was a paralegal in the Childcare Law team at a leading law firm (ranked tier 4 in the Legal 500 and band 2 in Chambers and Partners). She gained experience in public and private family law matters, particularly in care proceedings. She was also part of a team specialising in supporting neurodivergent children and families. Alice is regularly published in Family Law Week.

Alice graduated in History from the University of Exeter before completing her Graduate Diploma in Law, BPTC, and LLM with the University of Law.

Whilst studying, Alice competed extensively in advocacy and mooting competitions. She won the Inner Temple Rawlinson Cup for Advocacy in 2022, and the Landmark Chambers Advocacy Prize at the LSE Featherstone Moot in 2022, as well as winning the University of Exeter Mooting Competition in 2020 and 2021, and Mock Trial in 2021. She also volunteered with Family Law Email Advice Line, drafting advice letters for clients having family law issues, and with the University of Law Litigation Project, where she represented clients in private law children matters who could not access legal aid.
