McKayla is a Director based out of San Francisco. Since joining the firm in 2017, she has conducted and overseen work related to pre-transaction and pre-employment due diligence, complex litigation matters, and asset traces in the United States, Canada, Australia, and throughout Europe.

McKayla partners with her clients most frequently to advise and provide support related to risk mitigation in complex transactions, particularly in cross-border investigations that touch far-flung areas of the world where research requires a nuanced approach and in investigations that have a focus on uncovering sanctions exposure.

Some of her recent projects include uncovering that a potential business partner had adopted a fake identity in an attempt to make a large real estate purchase; discovering that the debtor on a multi-million dollar judgment was attempting to hide his wealth with his children; working to identify investment firms and advisors that knowingly allowed their clients to invest in a ponzi scheme; and supporting global clients who have been targets of proxy fights and short sellers.

McKayla holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from the University of California, Berkeley.

She is proficient in English and Russian.
