• Developing and maintaining the internal PE practice page.
• Coordinating with the legal education team to create associate and firmwide training content.
• Partnering with the PE/M&A marketing team on strategy, content, and pitch materials.
• Collaborating with the quantitative analyst group, other resource attorneys, and the innovation team on AI-enabled workflows and best practices.
