Catherine A. Crockett - Founder & General Partner

14 years of experience designing and building successful private equity programs with both economic development and financial objectives

Extensive experience working with both public sector and private sector institutions

Effective due diligence in private equity cannot be conducted with a cookie-cutter approach. Experience, judgement and a network of contacts are needed to identify and evaluate the unique issues with each team

Prior Experience:
Prior to founding GSA in 1998, Catherine built a successful 14-year career in the design and implementation of private equity investment programs where there was both a financial and business development objective. In total, she has led the formation of venture capital funds as well as private equity investment programs with nearly $400 million under management for major corporate and state pension fund investors. Her clients/programs included the States of Michigan, Florida, and Kentucky as well as the Federal Communications Commission, Puerto Rico and a number of foreign governments and agencies.

Education:
Undergraduate degree in government and business administration from the University of Notre Dame and an MPA from Harvard's Kennedy School.
