As the former Executive Director and Director of Careers at the TOP RANKED UC Berkeley Masters in Financial Engineering (MFE) program.

I currently lead a community dedicated to advancing careers in quantitative finance, offering personalized coaching for Quantitative Finance , resume reviews, and strategic career planning through QuantMinds. My previous roles at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business and Stanford GSB have equipped me with a deep understanding of the finance industry and the skills needed to succeed. Let's work together to achieve your career goals in the hedge fund industry!

I currently spend time in my role on public equity investing. I can help you prepare for interviews, stock pitches, and general ideas for your HF role.

I spent 19 years trading fixed income and equity futures at institutional level. I've lived every psychological trap this industry throws at you: drawdowns, position sizing under pressure, the paralysis after a losing streak, the overconfidence after a good run. I'm not a psychologist who read about trading. I've been in the chair at the level you're operating at and I've felt those same emotions.

Welcome to my profile! How can we prepare you for the next step? I have over a decade of experience in the finance industry, including roles as an Investment Analyst at Sylebra Capital, an Associate at Francisco Partners, and an Investor at Lightspeed. I bring a wealth of knowledge to my coaching practice and can to speak to (i) best practices for equity research analysts (ii) preparing for management/expert calls to extract the most during the diligence process, (iii) horizontally transitioning into roles with limited experience and, (iv) tips for getting into grad school. I am a CFA Charterholder and have an MBA from Columbia Business School. Whether you're looking to refine your investment approach, hone your research skills, or prepare for interviews, I'm here to guide you every step of the way. Let's connect and chart your path to success in finance!

I’m an investment professional with 10+ years across hedge funds, private equity–style investing, and structured/alternative credit, currently at Kawa Capital and previously at Obra Capital, Hudson Structured Capital Management, and Canyon Partners. My background combines hands-on deal work, portfolio management, and investment due diligence with direct involvement in recruiting and mentoring analysts and associates trying to break into buy-side roles. I draw on an MSc in Finance & Private Equity from the London School of Economics and a BA in Economics & Mathematics from Cornell University to help candidates sharpen their technical skills, tell a coherent story, and target the right platforms and strategies for their profile. As a coach, I focus on practical, no-nonsense guidance on resumes, networking, and interview prep so you understand how investors actually think and can position yourself competitively in a crowded hedge fund and private equity recruiting market.

I'm currently a CIO, Portfolio Manager at a hedge fund and have spent my career across investment banking, consulting, venture capital, and buy-side investing. I help aspiring and early-career investors think more clearly about markets, stock selection, and portfolio construction. Whether you’re preparing for a hedge fund interview, refining a stock pitch, or developing your own investing framework, I focus on how professional investors actually evaluate ideas. We can work through thesis development, valuation logic, risk analysis, position sizing, and how to defend an investment under pressure. I also help candidates prepare for buy-side interviews with practical mock sessions. These sessions are direct, practical, and grounded in real-world investing and not theory.
