Legal Experience: I have seen how situations evoke strong personal emotions when working with business owners making internal corporate decisions and arrangements, families planning their legacy, people going through divorce and individuals filing for bankruptcy. This demands smart strategy and necessitates being an educator. My law practice has taught me a lot about business analysis and strategy, asset management, risk aversion tactics, as well as problem solving around and negotiating financials, all the while considering all party interests, along with systems, ethics and people’s personal well-being.
