Overview

Rebecca is a dealmaker who advises businesses, executive teams, and owners through strategic transactions.

She has extensive experience handling buy- and sell-side M&A, corporate divestitures (including carve-outs), and succession planning transactions, and her clients routinely rely on her to guide them through their most sensitive and strategic endeavors.

Rebecca launched her legal career at the world’s largest law firm, where she gained deep experience advising private equity firms in their M&A activities.
