Experienced corporate lawyer specializing in capital markets and securities law.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
As a seasoned corporate lawyer with over 9 years of experience, I specialize in capital markets, securities law, and corporate transactions. My expertise includes guiding startups, technology companies, and multinational corporations through venture capital funding, mergers and acquisitions, and regulatory compliance. I have a strong track record in structuring equity and debt offerings, drafting complex commercial agreements, and providing holistic general counsel services.
My professional journey includes founding and operating a successful New York law office, where I advised clients on cross-border investments, joint ventures, and corporate governance. I have also worked with prominent law firms in Vietnam and Washington, D.C., where I counseled clients on market entry, corporate structuring, and regulatory compliance. My experience extends to crypto and blockchain advisory, where I have supported fintech startups with securities law, licensing, and regulatory compliance.
I hold a J.D. from American University Washington College of Law and am admitted to the New York Bar. I am fluent in both Korean and English and proficient in legal research platforms and document management systems. My passion lies in cross-border investments, emerging technologies, and international arbitration.
