Repton’s Private Equity Qualifications
Experience level: Vice President
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.
Repton can help with:
Cover Letters
Due Diligence
Financial Analysis
Financial Modeling
LinkedIn Review
Networking Strategy
Private Equity Strategy
Promotion Strategy
Resume Review
Technical Interview Prep
Why do I coach?
I coach because breaking into private credit shouldn't feel like a black box. Having sat on both sides of the interview table, I want to give candidates the exact technical toolkit, modeling frameworks, and insider insights they need to stand out and land elite buy-side roles.
