She joined the firm in 2003 and started a one-year secondment with a large, well-established technology company with a strategic investment fund, during which she focused primarily on the fund’s private placements. After she returned to Pillsbury in 2004, she continued to work on the technology company’s investments, reviewing and negotiating transaction documents and coordinating closings for approximately 30 private placements, debt financings and portfolio company matters.

Ms. Lee’s practice also focuses on mergers and acquisitions, general corporate governance matters and representation of emerging growth companies. Representative examples of deals on which she has provided support include: a $20 million acquisition of a private software company; a $50 million acquisition of the assets of a business engaged in the sourcing of medical-surgical products from overseas factories; the $49.5 million acquisition of a large technology portfolio by our client, a secondary acquirer of venture capital and private equity investments in emerging growth companies; and a $90 million acquisition of three asphalt, sand and aggregate companies, which involved complex real estate and transfer issues with the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission.
