BIOGRAPHY
I help clients on a wide range of business law matters including company formation, debt and equity financing, joint ventures and partnerships, M&A, business succession planning, complex commercial contracts, technology, collaborative R&D and licensing, corporate governance and shareholder matters. My expertise has garnered industry recognition, including acknowledgement by Best Lawyers in Canada for Mergers and Acquisitions Law, Leveraged Buyouts and Private Equity Law, Technology Law, and Corporate Law.
Beyond my professional commitments, I serve as the Vice-President of the Board of Directors for Microcredit Montreal, where I have volunteered for over a decade. In my leisure time, I enjoy hanging out with my family, hiking with our dogs and visiting with our extended family in the Pays Basque.
