Shawn focuses his practice on advising all aspects of the innovator economy.  From capital allocators to startups, Shawn counsels organizations throughout their lifecycle including business strategy, formation of funds, SPV’s, company structuring, funding, and mergers and acquisitions. Shawn started his career at Arthur Andersen in a unique group that advised UHNW families in a precursor to the Multi Family Office.  As part of the largest professional services firm in the world he advised families and family-owned businesses on tax, investment, finance, estate planning, corporate structuring, and M&A.
