Before joining Morgan Lewis, Chris served as an attorney-advisor in the Division of Corporation Finance at the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

While serving on the staff in the Division of Corporation Finance, Chris reviewed transactional and securities disclosures filed under the Securities Act of 1933, such as IPOs, follow-on offerings, spin-offs and business combinations, as well as periodic reports by public companies filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as quarterly and annual reports and proxy statements.
