Dane Anderson is a member of our Retail and M&A practices. He has worked with many large retailers ($20B+) and his work primarily supports major transformations. His M&A project portfolio includes due diligence, pre-merger planning, and post-merger transformation for both corporate and private equity clients.

In his personal time, Dane is an avid outdoorsman - running, skiing, and, most importantly, fly fishing. He and his family (wife and two kids) live in Washington, DC.
Dane obtained dual degrees in political science and economics from the University of North Carolina and an MBA from Duke’s Fuqua School of Business.
