As an entrepreneurial attorney, I focus my practice on all aspects of business law and transactions, including raising capital, mergers and acquisitions, partnerships and LLCs, and executive compensation and severance. I've practiced corporate and business law for over 35 years, starting on Wall Street and currently as Special Counsel at Nilan Johnson Lewis PA. I'm also the founder and President of the Minnesota Food Truck Association, the official trade association of Minnesota food trucks, and a founder and partner of Andrew Zimmern’s Canteen, which began as a food truck and has since morphed into a multi-faceted food service business.I represent small and medium sized businesses in health care, restaurants and food trucks, high tech, venture capital and private equity and cannabis spaces. I also represent many senior level executives in connection with negotiating employment and severance arrangements and equity compensation arrangements. My clients appreciate me because I deliver a level of authenticity that strengthens relationships, both with clients and counter-parties. My clients value my perspective, emotional intelligence, commitment, and assertiveness.
