William Blair continued to expand its private capital advisory team with the addition of Sprague Von Stroh as managing director. Based in San Francisco, Von Stroh will focus on West Coast investor coverage across primary, secondary and co-investment advisory assignments.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Sprague to the team,” Jerome Wallace and Brian Williams, co-heads of private capital advisory at William Blair, said. “Sprague is widely regarded as one of the most talented people in our industry, and we’re honored to have the opportunity to work with her again at William Blair.”
Von Stroh draws on more than 19 years of private capital advisory experience, including most recently serving as a managing director in the Credit Suisse Private Fund Group, where she was responsible for west coast investor coverage. Before Credit Suisse, Von Stroh held investor relations roles with global private markets firms Pantheon Ventures and Grosvenor Capital Management. Von Stroh earned her B.A. from Colgate University.
“I am excited to be teaming up with my former colleagues to establish William Blair’s Private Capital Advisory practice,” Von Stroh said. “Together, we look forward to working with our clients to provide best-in-class advice and capital raising solutions.”
