A new Kat for the IPKat team

The IPKat's blogging team is delighted to announce the appointment of a seventh team member, this being none other than Catherine M. Lee.  Having qualified as a solicitor and trade mark attorney in Australia and as a solicitor and barrister in England and Wales, Catherine also holds a PhD from the University of Oxford. She currently works as a Night Lawyer for The Sun newspaper. Previous convictions include spells working for law firm Clayton Utz and the Australian Copyright Council.

A talented linguist (her familiarity with Japanese, German, French and Italian more than compensates for Jeremy's well-chronicled deficiencies in this regard), Catherine is also an expert wine-taster (she has held office as President of the Oxford University Wine Society).

Keen readers of this weblog will have noticed that Catherine has written two guest pieces for it recently, which you can sample here and here. We all look forward to more of the same, so let's give warm welcome to Cat the Kat!
