/My focus

I advise clients on structuring transactions designed to qualify for federal LIHTCs, state LIHTCs, and other tax credits and benefits. These transactions often involve multiple layers of public and private financing, including tax-exempt bonds, soft debt, and state and local funding programs. I support clients through deal structuring, closing, and the tax credit compliance period, helping them identify and resolve issues efficiently and cost-effectively.

My practice includes conducting due diligence, identifying and mitigating legal, tax, and transaction risks early in the process, and drafting equity transaction documentation critical to achieving client business objectives.

/Looking ahead

Demand for affordable housing and community development financing continues to grow, and tax credit programs remain essential tools for bringing projects to market.  I look forward to helping clients structure and close efficient, resilient transactions that support long-term compliance, investor goals, and meaningful community impact.
