About Kent

Founder of Moser Capital, I am a seasoned executive and coach dedicated to empowering professionals, leaders, and startup founders to achieve transformative growth and lasting success. My executive coaching focuses on career advancement, leadership development, and negotiation strategies across diverse sectors, including private equity, venture capital, technology, AI, infrastructure, hospitality, retail, finance, and energy. With more than 30 years of experience in capital markets, I have mentored numerous individuals and teams, helping them overcome complex challenges and deliver outstanding results. Previously, I held leadership roles at Blackstone and Alliance Capital, and served as Managing Director at Robeco, where I launched the firm's first Asia-focused private equity platform.

Why do I coach?

With years of experience in talent acquisition and career coaching, I’ve had the privilege of supporting hundreds of professionals through meaningful career transitions—across startups, finance, consulting, and more. My background reviewing thousands of resumes and working closely with candidates in competitive markets has shaped my approach to helping people create clear, authentic applications and prepare thoughtfully for interviews. Having spent time in venture capital and private equity, I also enjoy mentoring individuals and startup teams on leadership growth, strategic networking, and making the most of new opportunities. What I value most is helping people gain clarity and confidence in their professional paths—whether that means moving into a new industry, strengthening their presence as a leader, refining their resume or LinkedIn profile, or building stronger teams. At the heart of it, I truly enjoy this work because it’s deeply rewarding to see others unlock possibilities in their careers and lives.
