I was born in Mombasa, Kenya and grew up between Nairobi and London. My career has spanned three continents and includes substantive management, private equity, M&A and cross-boarder experience. I have experience advising institutional investors (including governmental and corporate plans) on all aspects of their investments in domestic and international alternative investment funds, as well as structuring and negotiating some of the largest private equity funds, including impact based investment funds. I am often called on to counsel teams on investment strategy and creating complex and unique fund structures (including funds relating to social impact). In 2015 I was named as a Rising Star on Washington's Super Lawyer list. I have a passion for social value and impact investing, as well as various philanthropic causes.
