Olga brings a strategic, tech-forward, in-house perspective to GCAS, shaped by more than 20 years of experience across the tech, fintech, and energy sectors. Her career bridges the gap between massive institutional scale and entrepreneurial agility, having served as outside counsel to multi-billion dollar enterprises and as Fractional General Counsel for high-growth startups. Trusted by Boards of Directors and CXO teams of both private and public companies, Olga specializes in translating complex legal risks into clear, actionable business strategies. 

Prior to founding GCAS, Olga served as SVP & Deputy General Counsel at Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), a well-known NASDAQ-listed company, during a period of operational expansion and high-velocity product development. She oversaw Strategy's corporate legal and risk management functions (including the legal aspects of public company reporting, regulatory compliance, strategic initiatives, global expansion, and enterprise risk management) and worked closely with the Board of Directors.  

Olga started her career at Hogan Lovells, a leading global "Big Law" firm in D.C., where she focused on cross-border M&A transactions. She holds a J.D. cum laude from Harvard Law School and a B.A. with Distinction in Economics and Foreign Affairs from the University of Virginia.

Olga integrates seamlessly with in-house business and legal teams to provide strategic and practical legal advice and support.
