Bunch is a partner in the Washington, D.C., office of Cohen Milstein, where he is a member of the firm’s Securities Litigation & Investor Protection Practice Group.
In addition to his legal work, Bunch is the co-founder and chairman of Global Playground, a nonprofit that funds the construction of schools and educational infrastructure in developing countries and promotes cross-cultural understanding among the children at those schools. Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe appointed him to serve a four-year term on the William & Mary Board of Visitors in July 2016, and he is also a member of the board of directors of Virginia21, a non-partisan organization that seeks to engage young people in the political process.
The Law School recognized Bunch and classmate Douglas Smith in 2011 as co-recipients of the inaugural Taylor Reveley Award for their work with Global Playground. The award recognizes outstanding commitment to public service by an alumnus or alumna who has graduated within the previous 10 years.
