I am a corporate general counsel with deep and diverse transactional and public company management experience. As EVP, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, I lead a talented 55-member global legal and compliance team at RealPage, a formerly public (NASDAQ:RP) company (taken private by Thoma Bravo in 2021) with 8000+ employees on 4 continents that provides cloud-based software (SaaS) and data analytics to the real estate industry.

Prior to joining RealPage in 2010, I was a partner at Baker Botts LLP, an international law firm, where I spent 18 years representing both public and private clients with an emphasis on mergers and acquisitions, securities offerings, SEC compliance, corporate governance, technology and outsourcing transactions, and general corporate matters. My transaction experience ranges from $28 billion public split-off transactions to $10 billion public-to-private PE buyout transactions to $3 billion public M&A transactions to $1 billion IT outsourcing transactions to $300 million private M&A transactions to $250 million IPOs to $5 million venture capital financings.

Legal specialties: Public company corporate governance, mergers and acquisitions, IPOs and other public and private financings, SEC compliance, software and outsourcing transactions (ITO and BPO), data security and privacy, regulatory compliance, litigation management, and commercial contracting.
