Luke’s Career Coaching Qualifications

Experience level: Intern

I've personally navigated the pressure and uncertainty of career changes. My background includes direct experience in private equity, investment banking, and angel investing, and I've recruited for and received offers in areas like wealth management, corporate finance, and corporate banking. While my path across the finance landscape may seem linear, I've felt the weight of making a major career move and changing my direction often. My goal is to help you explore and understand the vast world of finance and business careers. I'm here to be a thought partner as you navigate your options, bounce ideas, and hopefully find a path that feels like the right fit. We'll work together to develop a networking strategy that gets you in front of the right decision-makers and helps clarify your goals. I believe everyone has the potential to build a successful and fulfilling career, and I'm committed to supporting you no matter where you are in your journey.

About Luke

Hi I'm Luke. Coming from a non-target school, I successfully networked my way into highly competitive internships in private equity, investment banking, and angel investing. I quickly realized my interests were more in the venture and early-stage startup world, which led me to my current role at a high-growth company. Having networked my way into every position I've held, I'm passionate about helping others develop their own career playbook. I've guided dozens of students and young professionals in enhancing their networking strategy, exploring diverse career paths, and ultimately landing top roles.

Why do I coach?

I attribute every success in my career to the support of others. I was fortunate enough to have strong mentors who taught me the importance of networking, a skill that led to every role I've ever had. But beyond just getting a job, networking is how I've been able to learn, develop, and explore my curiosity. I've always enjoyed helping those alongside and below me, so we can all grow together. I coach because others have contributed to my success, and for that, I am truly grateful. I see the potential in everyone. My goal is to be a sounding board, help you find and navigate your next career move, and show you that you can break into these competitive fields, no matter where you're starting from.
