After 34 years of practicing law, with a focus on distressed companies, and 30 years of service on non-profit boards, I am well-prepared to serve as an independent director, particularly for companies undergoing significant financial challenges. I assist Boards in meeting their continually evolving responsibilities and provide guidance in instituting governance best practices to strengthen the Board.
As a seasoned Director and an Attorney with extensive experience in corporate governance, my focus is on the “G” (governance) of “ESG.” I am a NACD Governance Fellow® and, for over three decades, I have counseled and guided directors and senior management clients through a myriad of complex challenges.
As a Director, expect me to ask nuanced questions about the financial impact of acquisitions, divestitures and strategies, as well as to challenge governance proposals that will not lead to improved financial performance. But I will always champion proposals that will maximize enterprise value.
I am responsive, knowledgeable, creative and practical. My interpersonal skills include a natural affinity for cultivating relationships and building consensus among diverse individuals and constituencies.
