5 out of 5 stars

I had the pleasure of working with Selena on a critical capital markets transaction, which involved a complex mix of public offerings and private placements in the renewable energy sector. Her expertise was not just limited to navigating us through the financing intricacies but also extended to ensuring our corporate governance was on point and compliant with all regulatory mandates.

Selena's ability to articulate sophisticated legal concepts in a digestible manner made our decision-making process much smoother. Her proactive approach in dealing with the challenges we faced, especially in the cannabis and technology sectors, was truly remarkable. It was evident that her background, with impressive stints at prestigious institutions like the University of Ottawa and the London School of Economics, had equipped her with a unique perspective that she brought to our dealings.

Moreover, her involvement in significant discussions on the advancement of women on boards, as highlighted in her co-authored publications, demonstrated her commitment to diversity and inclusion, aligning perfectly with our company's values.

Selena's presence in key legal forums, including guest lectures at Stanford Law School and panels at the MaRS Discovery District, speaks volumes about her reputation in the legal community. We felt incredibly fortunate to have her depth of knowledge, strategic insight, and practical advice at our disposal. Our successful navigation through the complex legal landscape of our transaction can be largely attributed to Selena's exceptional guidance and unwavering support.
