As the pace of energy transition is accelerating and the need for infrastructure modernization becoming more urgent, Vicki is a strategic partner for clients looking to make a difference, advising clients on debt and tax equity financings of complex energy and infrastructure projects.

Vicki quarterbacks project financings and developments, including advising a range of energy and infrastructure industry participants, from project developers, sponsors, borrowers, lenders, private equity funds, alternative credit providers and other capital providers and investors. She works with a range of asset classes, including wind, solar, battery storage, carbon capture, airports, trains and other transportation assets. Well versed in public-private partnerships (PPP/P3) and securities offerings, Vicki guides clients through the legal and business challenges of large infrastructure projects.

Vicki is recognized nationally by Chambers USA, where clients state that she “is terrific to work with,” and she “always makes herself available and is extremely knowledgeable, intelligent and able to get the best out of everyone she works with.”

A distinctive aspect of Vicki’s practice is her dual focus in both the infrastructure and renewables sectors. She leverages this unique perspective in her client relationships with project developers, sponsors, issuers, lenders and governmental authorities.

Passionate about strategizing to get a project to completion, Vicki helps clients build consensus and find creative solutions with achievable outcomes. Whether it’s for the development of a major airport expansion, the equity or debt financing of a wind farm, or the acquisition of a geothermal facility portfolio, Vicki counsels clients on challenging issues and the broader process, providing commercial advice that considers all stakeholders involved.
