About Severin

I am a UK-based coach helping high-ambition candidates win competitive outcomes across three tracks: university admissions, strategy consulting, and venture capital. Academically, I graduated from Durham University (Geography) with a First Class (78), ranked 4th in my year, and then completed a Master’s at the University of Cambridge, graduating with a Distinction (76), ranked 11th in my year. I moved through these admissions processes recently, so my guidance reflects the current standards and expectations, not legacy playbooks. Professionally, I earned multiple offers from top strategy consulting firms, joined Strategy&, and progressed rapidly, being promoted to Senior Associate in just over a year. I later exited into venture capital in London, giving me direct, current insight into how top firms assess candidates and make decisions. My coaching is practical and high signal. I work with clients on: University admissions: personal statements, course and university selection, admissions tests, and interview preparation; Strategy consulting: CV and cover letters, case interview structuring and maths, fit interviews, and final-round partner prep; Venture capital: VC positioning, outreach and networking, investing case studies, thesis, and interview preparation If you want clear direction, rigorous feedback, and output that reads credibly to selectors, I can help you execute a process that materially improves your odds.
