U.S.-trained M&A/PE and VC lawyer (ex V20) now based in Australia where I’ve built a cross-border practice focused on startups, growth-stage companies, and funds doing business between the U.S. and Australia.

Foreign LLM student here. I plan to take the NY bar exam in February. I’m thinking of taking a bar prep course (most likely Barbri).

In case it is helpful, I come from a civil law country. Thanks!
