I represent clients in business transactions, including corporate and mergers & acquisitions matters.
My Approach
My professional focus is on general corporate and securities law, including mergers and acquisitions, private equity, corporate governance, and securities compliance. I regularly help business owners draft corporate organizational documents and incorporate, amend, reincorporate, or dissolve entities in multiple jurisdictions, including, but not limited to, Delaware and Minnesota. I have a solid understanding of Delaware General Corporation Law, Minnesota state law related to business corporations, and business law in other states, which allows me to provide clients with comprehensive legal guidance across various jurisdictions.
When clients are acquiring or selling assets or equity, I conduct thorough due diligence, including reviewing customer contracts, vendor contracts, leases, loan documents, and preparing disclosure schedules. I also draft documents that should be delivered at closing to ensure smooth transactions.
Additionally, I assist public companies with drafting and filing periodic reports, such as Form 8-K and Form 10-Q, and shareholder communications, such as preliminary and definitive proxy statements and other solicitation materials, with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as preparing for scripts, agenda, procedures and rules of conduct for annual or special meetings of shareholders.
From a young age, I was inspired by watching my parents dedicate themselves to building a business from the ground up, which fueled my passion for helping business owners with transactional matters. Before becoming an attorney, I worked in public relations, which taught me the importance of clear communication and truly understanding clients’ needs. This experience continues to shape my approach as an attorney, where I strive to listen closely to my clients and provide thoughtful legal guidance to solve their complex business challenges.
Outside of work, I am an avid sports fan and I enjoy watching soccer and hiking with my dog, Lulu, as she and I both don’t mind walking in the Minnesota winter snow.
