Investment Banking

I worked in investment banking at Goldman Sachs, within the healthcare group for 2 years. I come from a non-traditional background, not having majored in finance during undergrad, and I also did not intern investment banking. So, I can offer unique coaching advice for those of you interested in breaking into investment banking without traditional backgrounds. I have mentors many college students interested in breaking into finance, either internships or full-time, and can assist in general career thought work, resume work, and interview preparation.

I’m Matt! I’m a full-time investment banking associate with nearly six years of experience across both bulge bracket and middle-market firms. I’ve led Superday preparation at my alma mater, helped run recruiting at my prior and current firms, and successfully coached countless candidates from non-target and target schools into roles at Goldman Sachs, Jefferies, JP Morgan, Wells Fargo, and top private equity and corporate development roles. What makes my approach different? I focus on helping you craft a compelling personal story, sharpen your behavioral answers, and simulate real Superday dynamics — the things that actually move the needle. I’ve reviewed hundreds of resumes and conducted dozens of interviews from the banker side of the table, and I bring that insider’s perspective to every session. Whether you’re a student trying to break in or a lateral candidate navigating a competitive process, I’ll help you stand out for the right reasons

Over the last 15 years, I've helped hundreds of students from non-target schools land jobs at Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Evercore, Moelis, Citi, Barclays, UBS, Jefferies, Lazard, Guggenheim, Catalyst, Wells Fargo, and many, many more.

Welcome to my profile! As an Incoming Investment Banking Summer Analyst at William Blair, I bring firsthand industry insights and practical knowledge of what it takes to break into investment banking. I’ve secured competitive roles at top firms like J.P. Morgan, Resurgens Tech Partners, and more, and have interviewed with numerous leading investment banks—giving me a comprehensive understanding of the recruiting process. With a strong academic foundation in Finance and Management Information Systems from the Terry College of Business, I have successfully guided 62 individuals in landing investment banking opportunities. My leadership roles, including President of the Black Business Student Association and Head of Recruitment for the Corsair Society, have further sharpened my ability to mentor and support aspiring professionals. Whether you need help with resume building, interview preparation, technical concepts, or networking strategies, I’m here to provide personalized guidance and proven strategies to help you stand out. Let’s connect and craft a plan to achieve your career goals in investment banking!

Most coaches in this space will tell you how to get into banking. I’ll tell you what nobody talks about - what comes after, and how to navigate it without losing your identity or your leverage. I spent 10 years in JPMorgan’s Equity Capital Markets division. I was promoted early and ranked in the top tier right from my analyst to VP days across EMEA Investment Banking. NOT because I worked the hardest, but because I learned quickly what actually moves the needle in this industry versus what’s just noise. Then I made the move myself. In 2025, I transitioned into a Strategic Finance & Capital Markets lead role at one of Europe’s fastest-growing energy unicorns — running fundraising, managing debt facilities, building the company valuation model and leading dialogue with banks and rating agencies. Same intellectual rigour. Materially better life. That transition is exactly what most of my clients want, and I’ve done it at a level most coaching profiles haven’t. I don’t coach from a textbook. I coach from a live career that’s still happening. This means my read on what the market values, how hiring decisions are actually made, and what a credible transition narrative looks like isn’t theoretical. It’s current. If you want someone who’s been on both sides of the table and recently - that’s what I offer.
