Meet Kaoru Suzuki
Fun Facts:
I was a professional violinist prior to becoming a lawyer. I lived in Japan for about five years when I was younger. Collaborating with entrepreneurs and board members to reach goals and address challenges draws on skills I developed while working with other musicians as a professional violinist. My favorite place to visit is Tanglewood in Lenox, Massachusetts.
If I weren’t a lawyer, I would be …
a musician in a string quartet

Start-up companies need to build a strong business foundation to achieve long-term success. I enjoy acting as a general counsel to emerging companies, teaching them how to structure equity awards and raise funds from investors. Guiding clients through these milestones and watching them bring innovative products and services to market is extremely gratifying. I’ve partnered with companies across the energy, clean tech & renewables, life sciences, and information technology sectors, and I look forward to helping you turn your vision into reality.
