Investment Banking Coaches

Drawing on five years of experience helping clients craft compelling professional narratives, I equip clients to present themselves with precision, confidence, and authenticity!

🚫 I may not be the right coach for you — yes, you read that right! If you're looking for a magical solution to break into Investment Banking, this isn’t it. ❌ If you’re still reading… I still may not be the right coach for you. If you already come from a strong finance background, chances are you know more than I do! 🧠📊 Still here? 👀 That’s probably because you’re trying to pivot into Investment Banking. 🔄💰 And this is where I know I can add tremendous value. 👩🏽‍💻 A little about me: I'm an Indian female engineer turned management consultant. Most recruiters would probably categorize my profile as a classic non-traditional candidate. I’m currently pursuing my MBA at Wharton, UPenn, and successfully landed two summer internship offers from top Investment Banks in New York. 🗽💼 📞 Types of Coaching Calls I Recommend 1. "Help me get started" 🚦 We’ll do a full profile analysis, understand your specific circumstances, and chart a personalized roadmap with clear next steps. 🛣️🗂️ 2. "Help my Resume" 📄🔍 A detailed session covering structure, formatting, section-by-section strategy, and a line-by-line review. (Remember — attention to detail is everything in banking! 🧾✅) 3. "Help me strategize" 🧠⚔️ Still debating BBs vs EBs? Product vs Industry groups? Let’s find where you fit best and build a strategy to maximize your chances. 🎯 4. "Help me master networking" ☕🤝 Includes a short mock coffee chat + tailored advice to help you be more effective (and memorable!). As an international student with zero finance experience, I had to learn the hard way. Let me help you skip that learning curve. 🚀 5. "Help me plan my technical prep" 📘⏳ Let’s build a customized technical prep strategy — the best resources, timelines, and milestones — that works with your schedule, not against it. 🗓️🔧 6. "Help me prep for industry and deal discussions" 💬📈 From deal templates and elevator pitches to industry insights — we’ll prep you to stand out in coffee chats and handle even the dreaded nth-level follow-ups like a pro. 🧩💼 7. "Help me get that interview invite" ✉️🔓 You're in the crucial weeks before first-round interviews. Let's talk low-touch vs high-touch strategies and how to stay tactically on radar. 🎯📬 8. "Help me prep for interviews" 🎤📚 Wait — hurray! You’re over the first hurdle. Just by getting that interview invite, your chances of landing the job have gone up tenfold! 🎉 Now it’s time to make it count. We’ll kick off with a short mock (technical + behavioral), assess where you stand, and create a personalized prep plan to help you crush both technicals and behaviorals with ~2-3 weeks of structured prep. 🔥🧠✅ 9. "Let’s do a full mock (coffee chat/interview)" 🕵️‍♀️🎬 A full simulation of what’s next — whether it’s a coffee chat, first round, or Superday — followed by detailed feedback so you can refine and level up. 🧗‍♂️✨ 🛠️ Need something tailored or want to mix & match? Shoot me a message and we’ll plan a session that fits your timeline and goals perfectly. 📝📞

Welcome to my profile! I’m a Wharton graduate with an MBA from Harvard Business School and bring over 15 years of experience in finance. For the past decade, I’ve been at Warburg Pincus—a top-10 global private equity firm managing over $100 billion—where I’m currently a Principal. Throughout my career, I’ve interviewed hundreds of candidates and directly mentored dozens of Analysts, Associates, and Vice Presidents. I know firsthand what it takes to break into competitive finance roles and advance within them. You may have come across my “Comprehensive Finance Interview Guide,” which I originally wrote over a decade ago while preparing for my own private equity recruiting—just one of many resources I’ve created to help others land top roles. Whether you’re preparing for investment banking, private equity, or business school, I offer targeted coaching across resume development, mock interviews, technical prep, recruiting strategy, and more.

After I graduated from Berkeley Haas, I spent two years as an investment banking analyst at Morgan Stanley before becoming a Private Equity Associate at The Carlyle Group. In my free time, I am a mentor for Women In Network, a non-profit organization founded to promote and encourage females in the professional world by fostering mentorships, expanding networks, and building communities. I have helped high school and college students with thinking through their future career by helping them with interview prep, talking through their interests / what they're looking for in a job, understanding the technical portions of a model / questions that would come up in an interview, and providing step-by-step guides to recruiting. I also taught 2 Berkeley Haas classes when I was a senior in college. I prepared materials for my classes, which were "Introduction to Investment Banking" and "Introduction to Buyside Financial Modelling".

I interned and worked in Wells Fargo's Consumer & Retail team, and have experience with M&A, equity and debt financing, and corporate advisory. My focus in Investment Banking was Consumer & Retail and M&A. My focus in Private Equity was Lower Middle Market & Middle Market.
