10+ years in private equity, during which I worked on transactions across the capital structure, private/public markets, and various sectors including TMT/business services/financial services/leisure/hospitality. Additionally, I led recruiting efforts for associates at multiple private equity firms. I can mentor candidates on recruiting, transaction execution, due diligence, and more.

I began my career in private equity after graduating from Georgetown, joining a multibillion-dollar fund as an investment professional. In addition to my deal work, I was entrusted with interviewing PE analyst candidates and helping determine who would join the firm — experience that gave me a deep, firsthand understanding of the recruiting process and the qualities investment teams prioritize. Combined with a Wharton MBA and a strong foundation in finance and accounting, my coaching is structured, analytical, and aligned with real private equity expectations. I help candidates elevate their technical skills, strengthen their investment judgment, and craft a compelling narrative that resonates with PE hiring teams.

I am an active private credit professional in New York City with experience executing complex transactions across Direct Lending, Corporate Credit, Structured Equity, and Asset-Backed Investing (ABF) at firms including Blue Owl Capital and Arena Investors. I hold an undergraduate degree from Duke University alongside a Master’s in Econometrics & Statistics, providing a strong analytical foundation for the technical side of credit underwriting. As private credit continues to scale, recruiting for these roles has become highly competitive and technical. Traditional private equity guides don't cover the nuances of downside protection, debt documentation, and asset-backed structures. I help candidates from investment banking, credit research, and traditional PE navigate this specific recruiting landscape and master the frameworks used by buy-side investment committees.

With a robust background in private equity and investment banking, I bring a wealth of experience to help you navigate the competitive landscape of private equity careers.

My time as an Investment Banking Analyst at Lazard also honed my skills in the Consumer & Retail sector.
