I AM always singing 5 songs in my head at once

Bio

Maddie graduated from the University of Nottingham in 2022 with a First-Class degree in English. Before joining Stobbs in August 2026, she worked in disability support across higher education and secondary schools before moving into legal claims handling, specialising in contract disputes. With a particular focus on vulnerable customers, she emphasises the importance of accessibility, inclusion and compassion when orienting the court system. 

Outside of work, Maddie enjoys returning to the many hobbies she picked up while growing up in a rural village. This may include, but is not subject to: performing with her classical guitar and half forgotten lyrics, painting something Surrealist, almost getting knocked out again in hockey, doing an extravagant makeup look, or dancing somewhere with her friends.
