Abhiram’s Investment Banking Qualifications
Experience level: Analyst
Abhiram has helped clients get into these companies:
With a robust background in private equity and strategic finance, I bring a wealth of experience to help you navigate the competitive landscape of investment banking and private equity careers. As a former Private Equity Associate at Ara Partners, I worked on five portfolio companies and closed two platform investments in the energy / decarbonization sector, providing me with firsthand insights into the intricacies of the industry. My journey also includes roles at EIG (an infrastructure PE fund) and J.P. Morgan, where I honed my skills in energy infrastructure and investment banking. I am well-equipped to guide you through the nuances of private equity applications and interviews, especially if you have an engineering background. I am also a graduate of Harvard Business School (MBA) and Princeton University, and closely worked with the admissions team on crafting an overall admissions strategy. I'm happy to assist with business school or college applications and strategies to maximize your admission chances.
