Top Corporate Development Coach | Ex-Tech IB | 3x Growth for SaaS Business
No matter where you currently work or which university you attend, I’m passionate about helping aspiring professionals break into Corporate Development. Specifically, I can support you by: 1. Providing a clear overview of the Corporate Development recruiting landscape 2. Helping you build the key skills required for on-the-job success 3. Creating a tailored recruiting strategy to land a role at your target program I took a highly non-traditional path into the field and received multiple Corporate Development offers despite challenges: a modest GPA, lower standardized test scores, graduating from a non-target state university, and no experience at a bulge-bracket or elite boutique investment bank. My background includes: - Successful recruiting for Summer Analyst, Full-Time Analyst, and lateral Investment Banking roles - Ten internships across three states, secured through persistent networking, leading to a full-time Investment Banking role in a technology-focused group in San Francisco - Two full-time Corporate Development offers from private equity-backed SaaS companies Today, I help lead M&A for a high-growth, highly profitable SaaS company. In this role, I’ve: - Built the M&A function from the ground up, leading deal sourcing, execution, and post-merger integration - Closed three acquisitions that helped triple the company’s growth in just two years - Engaged with 200+ founders to evaluate strategic fit and participated in dozens of sell-side processes - Reported directly to the C-suite, presented weekly to the Board, and collaborated closely with Product, Engineering, Go-to-Market, and other teams on sourcing and due diligence I’ve also built relationships with Corporate Development leaders at top public companies (including Apple, Zoom, PayPal, Shopify, American Tower, and Royal Caribbean) and have deep insight into the varying recruiting processes and team structures across different platforms. If you’re aiming for Corporate Development — or even exploring whether it’s the right next step after investment banking — I’d love to connect and discuss how I can help you achieve your goals. Please reach out; I’m here to be a resource on your journey.
