Connect With Me: tatyannasenel@paulhastings.com | Linkedin
I am a senior real estate associate at Paul Hastings, specializing in advising clients across a wide spectrum of transactional real estate matters in both debt and equity transactions, with a particular focus on large-scale data center and related digital infrastructure projects. Prior to joining Paul Hastings, I started my legal career at Orrick and McDermott, which included a year long secondment at Microsoft. As part of Microsoft’s CELA team, I helped provide frontline legal support for the company’s AMERS and LATAM portfolios covering operations, development and leasing.
Being a part of CREFC, and particularly the Women’s Network, has been incredibly rewarding thus far, and I look forward to growing alongside this community. I believe it’s vital to the success of our industry and each of our own individual, personal growth and enjoyment to have a safe space – whether at work, in community or in life. I’m passionate about building meaningful connections within this network, and I am honored to learn from you all in the years to come. I also would like to shout out the incredible women who attended the CREFC Women’s Network Golf Event last month – thank you for all of the laughs and thank you for not laughing at my horrible golf game!
3 Fun Facts About Me:
• Fun fact about me that surprises people: I am an advanced certified scuba diver and love taking dive trips all over the world. My favorite dive of all time is in Bali, Indonesia off the coast of Tulamben, which is the USAT Liberty Shipwreck dive site.
• Biggest cooking flop: A few years ago for Christmas, I had promised my grandma that I would make flan. Who knew making flan involved such a tedious process. As I attempted to retrieve the flan from the oven, I dropped the pan… all over the floor. I have yet to try making flan again! Perhaps, one day.
• Biggest guilty pleasure: I love sweets and will never say no to a sweet treat.
