I advise the firm on the full range of PE activities, from structuring minority and majority investments to supporting portfolio companies on leverage and exit transactions. My expertise includes domestic and international tax structuring, incentive plan design, corporate governance, IPO preparation, public M&A, debt financing, fund formation and litigation management. I counsel across all sectors of General Atlantic's investment activities and have particular expertise in healthcare, financial services, internet and media, emerging market consumer and business services. I have been engaged in transactions in more than 20 countries. I also advise management teams of our portfolio companies to help them navigate the challenges arising at all stages of a company’s growth and provide counsel and support in their M&A activities. My partners and management teams believe that I bring sound business judgment and creativity to the table, and that I have the ability to get to the bottom of matters quickly to find the best and most efficient solution complex problems.
