I have 30 yrs experience as in-house counsel in global financial institutions (BofA and Deutsche Bank) and prior to that, 6 yrs as associate at Cleary Gottlieb. My practice areas (derivatives, securities, banking) have often been in areas well ahead of the development of the law, so I'm comfortable with (and challenged by) uncertainty. I hope to bring this background and my energies to further LII goals. A confirmed Atlanticist, I split life between New York City and Hamburg, and aim to be a bridge between liked-minded innovators on both continents.
