She has been instructed in some of the leading cases in international criminal law including the first trial of a former Head of State (former President of Serbia, Slobodan Milosevic) and the first case at the ICC of an incumbent Head of State (President Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya).

Tristan Pedelty: Tristan Pedelty has had an 18-year career in the public sector, with over a decade as a Senior Civil Servant. He is currently a Director in the Cabinet Office while studying to become a Chartered Accountant, having recently completed the establishment of a new organisation in Northern Ireland to investigate unsolved murders during the troubles, where he served as the first CEO and Commissioner.
