Anna-Louise Hinds holds a Bachelor of Corporate Law and an LL.B. (Bachelor of Laws) degree from University of Galway and an LL.M. (European Law) from the College of Europe, Bruges. She was an Assistant Lecturer in Law for one year at Dublin Institute of Technology, where she taught Constitutional Law and Law of Tort before joining the Law School at University of Galway in 2001.

She was also an Associate Member of the Law School in the Law Society of Ireland from 2000-2008. Anna-Louise's academic interests include EU Law, Competition Law and Trade Law and she currently lectures European Union Law, Comparative Competition Law and International Trade Law at undergraduate level and EU Competition Law and Intellectual Property Rights at masters level.
