My career is marked by a strong focus on strategic transactions, corporate governance, and team leadership. On strategic transactions, I bring a wealth of experience advising on cross-border and emerging market M&A, joint venture, venture capital, equity and debt capital markets, and loan financing transactions. This includes guiding companies with private equity or significant shareholders on preparation for and execution of exit transactions (both M&A and public share offerings). My sector experience includes biotech, media & entertainment, and digital operations & telecom. My corporate governance achievements include serving as company secretary at a Nasdaq-listed biotech company, creating a new corporate governance framework at a global media company, advising on SEC compliance and disclosure issues and ESG matters, and handling crisis management issues. Further, I work with senior management to shape business strategy, company culture, policies, and risk management and have extensive experience leading corporate legal teams.In addition, I have developed a track record of providing legal counsel to startup and growth stage companies on corporate and commercial matters, advising startups and investors on venture capital financings, and counselling aspiring entrepreneurs. In every role, my mission is to provide legal guidance that not only protects but also propels business objectives forward.My dedication extends beyond the corporate sphere, as demonstrated by my founding of The Belize Financial Literacy Initiative, where I empower young minds in financial and entrepreneurial literacy.
