Hedge Fund Coaches, Events, and Resources

I'm an investor with 10 years of experience across hedge funds, growth equity and investment banking. I spent the last 8 years in the hedge fund world with roles at Citadel and Echo Street (~$15bn long short and long only manager) focusing on both public equities and private growth equity investments. I have spent time in both long-duration strategies with a focus on business quality and shorter-duration modelling-intensive strategies. I started my career at Goldman Sachs in Investment Banking. I graduated first class honors from Queen's University and held multiple internships throughout college in finance including at Goldman Sachs in my junior summer where I received a full time offer. My approach is personal. I can help candidates break into hedge funds, growth equity and investment banking roles including deep dives into stock ideas, thesis crafting and conviction, valuation and risk analysis and mock interviews.

Over the course of my 18-year hedge fund career, I have had the opportunity to mentor and develop several high potential associates, analysts, and managers. This included detailed development work and training in fundamental analysis to performance coaching oriented toward decision making. Alongside these "hard skills," I helped my mentees navigate the complex and rapidly-evolving hedge fund landscape as they launched new ventures, negotiated salaries, and succeeded within firms with varying cultures. My experience spans single manager funds, multi-manager funds, and new launches, and I have worked with team mates at all experience levels: new college graduates, investment banking analysts, and private equity associates who were breaking into the industry to 20-year veterans what were leveling-up to managerial roles. I am proud to say that I maintain a close mentorship relationship with all of the investors who worked on my team, and career development is the most fulfilling dimension of my career. They have all gone on to be very successful in the industry as well! I look forward to coaching and mentoring for the rest of my career, and I hope to expand the impact that I have on the rising stars of the hedge fund industry.
