Tyra Khan

EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT

I provide essential behind-the-scenes support that keeps McCurdy Laud running smoothly. By managing administrative details, coordinating schedules, and organizing workflows, I help our attorneys dedicate their full attention to client matters.
I work closely with our Chief of Operations to maintain efficiency and uphold the firm's high standards for client service.

I take pride in creating order from complexity and handling the administrative foundations that allow our client-facing team to deliver exceptional legal services.

DETAIL-ORIENTED • ADAPTABLE

I am a South African final-year postgraduate law student with a curiosity for knowledge and a constant drive for development. Before joining McCurdy Laud, I worked in several sectors of administration, from governance to marketing, while obtaining my undergraduate and postgraduate degrees. This has inspired my passion for improving communication and systems, analysis, and playing a supportive role to my team and clients. 

Outside of work, I enjoy painting, playing board games with friends, playing soccer, and exploring as many cities as possible, Cape Town included.
