Specifically, Naomi has worked on buy-side and sell-side M&A transactions for U.S. and international for-profit and nonprofit clients, ranging from tens of millions to over $1 billion in deal value. She has also worked on international reorganization projects for multinational clients across North America, Europe and Asia and has advised U.S., Chinese and other Asian companies in the drafting and negotiations of a wide range of agreements with international counterparties, including supply contracts, joint venture agreements, and partnership arrangements.

Before practicing law, Naomi gained international corporate experience through a number of roles in Singapore. She was the head of the human capital division and senior officer in the logistics and supply chain management division for the Singapore Economic Development Board; a senior associate, focused on business strategy and performance management, with KPMG Advisory; and a senior executive in the corporate development division and employment and employability division for the National Trade Union Congress.
