I have demonstrated success maximizing corporate growth, increasing profitability, and minimizing risk exposure for Fortune 100s by proactively analyzing, structuring, and negotiating global business deals. Typically, I focus on overall business objectives to determine possible legal hurdles, formulate creative financial solutions, and develop legal strategies that position corporations for industry leadership. I consider myself skilled in marshalling and presenting facts, legal arguments, and recommendations before multi-national corporate boards and committees. I am recognized as a bridge-builder and trusted advisor to C-level executives with the unique ability to bring disparate business entities and corporate cultures together into a cohesive team.

My hobbies include attending the opera, symphony and theater and running 5K and 10K races.
