    My focus

    I focus on private equity transactions, including the formation and financing of business enterprises, mergers and acquisitions, capital financing and private equity fund formation.

    I am corporate counsel to a number of emerging technology companies and privately held businesses and advise private equity, venture capital and angel investors in connection with their portfolio investments.

    I am a regular panelist and frequent speaker at events focused on M&A, venture capital and emerging technology and have written on the subject of deal structuring and private finance for several publications. I served as a member of the drafting committee of the National Venture Capital Association’s Standard Forms Project, which released its first set of industry-standard venture capital deal documents in 2004.

    I am a member of the Board of Directors of Albany Medical Center and an active member of the Upstate Venture Association of New York.

    Looking ahead

    Macro uncertainty slowed M+A activity in late 2022, and variables such as inflation, rising interest rates, and a possible recession still loom. Still, our outlook remains positive. We expect activity to increase in 2023, particularly in the lower-middle market.
