SPEAKER

Virginia Badenhope

Virginia is a tech lawyer who’s been around the block, having practiced at firms big and small as well as tech companies ranging in size from start-ups to behemoths.  She’s led commercial, IP and privacy teams, and been at companies that have been acquired, have done the acquiring, and have gone public. Virginia brings her expertise to Sentry, where she joined as General Counsel last month. In these strange and uncertain times, Virginia has found comfort in nostalgic pursuits like quilting and growing roses.  Oh, and she also tries to make sure her kids are doing what they’re supposed to be doing in remote learning.
