About
I have worked with companies ranging from start-ups to large international companies, negotiating and structuring agreements to accomplish a company’s goals, on-time, and on-budget. Working in a diverse range of industries, I have helped clients with company formation, seed and venture financing, contract negotiation, mergers, and acquisitions, with personal attention for every issue, big or small, because I understand how important every issue can be to a business’s success.

My process results in a top-level and practical view of a contract or transaction as a whole, allowing me to go deeper for a more detailed review of the contract or… read more transaction once critical issues and topics are identified. This process helps keep total hours worked lower (lower cost and quicker turnaround time) and gives my clients the ability to make a more informed choice about where the focus should be.
