Sherry is well positioned to assume the Managing Partner role. Her deep understanding of current market conditions and commitment to understanding her clients’ business allows Sherry to provide a tailored approach to best manage risk and maximize outcome.  Sherry joined the firm as an associate in 2002 and became partner in 2007, and will continue to focus on her practice as she takes on the Managing Partner role.
