Background: McConnell leads Ballard Spahr’s Private Equity Group and is a member of its Mergers and Acquisitions Group. She has closed more than 400 transactions for buyers and sellers in her career.
Source of pride: “The relationships I have developed with my clients. Many have expanded decades, and I am lucky to work for such wonderful people.”
