About Akaash

This year alone, Akaash has helped clients land Investment Banking roles at Moelis, Ducera, LionTree, and Jefferies; Private Equity and Growth Equity roles at General Atlantic, FTV Capital, and Gauge Capital; and Consulting roles at Bain & Company. Akaash Parimeru is a seasoned finance professional with deep experience across investment banking, private equity, and corporate development. He began his career at Lazard Frères & Co. in New York, working on high-stakes M&A and restructuring mandates, before joining a newly formed $500M private equity fund as an early hire on the investment team. Across his career, Akaash has executed over $600M in sell-side M&A and private equity transactions, giving him firsthand insight into what top firms look for in candidates. Now based in Dallas, he most recently served as Director of Corporate Development at a leading physician practice management roll-up, where he led strategic acquisitions and growth initiatives. Akaash specializes in helping candidates break into Investment Banking, Private Equity, and Corporate Development roles through practical, outcomes-driven coaching. He provides hands-on guidance across every stage of the process—from resume and story crafting to advanced technical prep, mock interviews, and offer negotiation—ensuring his clients stand out and secure top-tier job offers.

Why do I coach?

I coach because I’ve experienced firsthand the transformative power of mentorship in my own personal and professional growth. I understand the challenges of breaking into competitive fields and aim to help others overcome those hurdles with actionable advice and personalized feedback. Whether it’s refining a resume, preparing for interviews, or planning career moves, I’m eager to help others reach their goals and unlock their potential.
