Leadership
Owen Zingraff
After several years as an event attendee, Owen served on the Committee for the 2020 Great Gatsby Gala. His passion for the MS community was quickly evidenced by his commitment to our goals, and when the decision was made to switch the Gala to a virtual format, Owen went above and beyond to ensure a successful event. We are excited for Owen's continued support of our Mission as this year's Committee Chair!
Owen is Assistant General Counsel in the Private Debt Group at Barings, supporting the private finance, private placement and infrastructure finance platforms. Previously a partner at Winston & Strawn's Charlotte office, his practice focused on corporate lending and other corporate finance transactions. A North Carolina native, Owen attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Georgetown University Law Center. He lives in Charlotte, North Carolina with his wife, Meredith, and newborn son, Jackson.
