  • Lead client teams representing operating companies in the startup and emerging company space.

  • Manage venture financing transactions from early stage through late stage.

  • Provide day-to-day corporate and “external GC” counsel to clients.

  • Mentor and train junior associates, helping them grow and excel.

What We’re Looking For
