Ms. Chu joins from Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, where she served as Deputy Co-Chair of the M&A Group and as a member of the firm’s Private Equity Group and Healthcare & Life Sciences Group. She brings extensive experience advising corporations and private equity firms in mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, and other corporate matters across a broad range of industries.

“We are very pleased to welcome Jen to TPG,” said Jon Winkelried, Chief Executive Officer. “Throughout her career, Jen has proven adept at guiding her corporate and private equity clients through complicated commercial transactions and other matters. As our firm continues to grow in size and complexity across a range of asset classes and geographies, we will benefit from Jen’s depth of experience, leadership expertise, and judgement. Since joining TPG in 2017, Brad has been a trusted Partner and advisor to many across the firm. He was instrumental in TPG’s IPO and transition to a public company, as well as our acquisition of Angelo Gordon. He’s had a successful legal career, spanning the private and public sectors, and we thank him for his many contributions to TPG over the years.”
