About Connor

Born & raised in China, I interned with three non-profits during high school and subsequently attended Penn for undergrad. After college, I spent 2 years in TMT investment banking at Goldman Sachs’ San Francisco office, focusing on tech M&A and consumer internet. Currently, I invest in early-stage consumer / B2B2C tech companies at Visible Ventures in New York City. I’m also a Stanford GSB deferred admit.

Why do I coach?

Coming from a small town in one of the most under-developed regions in China, receiving and giving mentorship has been one of the most critical building blocks of my personal and professional journey -- let it be getting into Penn / GSB deferred, moving to the US, or breaking into investment banking -- and I'm excited to help others reach their potential
