Lidia joins us from the land down under, where she studied Law and foreign languages at Macquarie University in Sydney. Having found the charms of the signature grey sky and drizzle irresistible, she now calls England home. Having discovered the world of intellectual property in a lecture hall of a Dutch university on her semester abroad, she is eager to learn and develop in this field. With a keen interest in the ins and outs of brand creation and protection, she looks forward to making her mark on the world of trade marks.

In her spare time, Lidia enjoys cooking, baking, learning new languages and travelling. She is also a fan of a strong cuppa, a comfy chair and good book.
