Investment Banking Coaches, Events, and Resources

I spent three years in investment banking at Moelis, and have gone through both the 2-year Analyst program and stayed on as an Associate afterwards. I worked across both the LA and New York offices and was top-ranked in all three years. During my time at the firm, I was also heavily involved in analyst and intern recruiting, so I’ve seen firsthand what it takes to break into a top bank and how to stand out once you’re there. Over the years, I’ve helped a number of candidates navigate the recruiting process, from building a compelling story to preparing for technicals, refining resumes, and developing networking strategies that actually work. Mentorship has always been important to me. I have supported candidates recruiting for different geographies and industry groups. At USC, I served as Director of Mentorship for the Trojan Investing Society (the school’s largest finance org), where I guided a cohort of 30+ students through recruiting landing roles at firms such as GS, Evercore, JP Morgan, etc. across NY, Boston, SF and LA. I also worked as a Peer Career Advisor at USC's Career Center, helping students successfully land offers in investing banking and private equity. Since graduating, I’ve continued to mentor through programs like SEO, Women in Network, and Synergist Network. If you’re preparing for banking interviews or looking for guidance on breaking in, I’d love to help. Let’s connect and get you set up for success.

I was a senior associate in Investment Banking (FIG) at Goldman Sachs in London, where I worked on strategic and advisory projects for financial institutions across EMEA, building my skills in financial modelling and valuation analysis. I've also co-founded initiatives and advised entrepreneurs through Antler, a global VC firm. I hold an MBA from Harvard Business School, where I was nominated to tutor in business and international economy courses. I'm passionate about helping people from underprivileged or non-traditional backgrounds break into this often opaque industry and figure out if it's the right fit for them. Let’s chat!

I’m a non-target success story who beat the odds and secured investment banking offers at Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, and Bank of America. I now help other students from non-traditional backgrounds break into top-tier IB roles through sharp resume edits, story crafting, technical prep, and networking strategies that actually convert into interviews. If you're grinding from a non-target school, I’ve walked that path — and I’ll help you crack the code. All coaching with me comes with complimentary technical documents and models.

Group focus / specialty: Technology (TMT) My involvement with the investment banking industry began in 2018 when I secured three coveted early investment banking offers from top investment banks (e.g., J.P. Morgan, Barclays) before even stepping foot on campus for my MBA. I also landed multiple fellowships, such as the J.P. Morgan Early Advantage Fellowship, that translate into six-figure bonuses in addition to standard signing bonuses. For the last 5 recruiting cycles, I've leveraged my know-how to help a variety of applicants land investment banking and fellowships offers. At J.P. Morgan, I covered the technology sector in the investment bank and served as a Harvard and UChicago School Captain for campus recruiting. In the Captain role, I was heavily involved with interviewing at the firm and have a strong understanding of what it takes to build a compelling profile to land a top investment banking offer. My experience as a coach at the boutique MBA consulting firm Ivy Advisors and SEO Career has further honed my skills in mentorship and coaching. I have helped hundreds of clients achieve their educational and professional goals. I am especially helpful to investment banking applicants who are looking to: ◉ perfect their "why investment banking" story ◉ refine their technical interview skills ◉ land a spot on a coveted technology coverage group ◉ recruit for West Coast opportunities ◉ transition from a different industry ◉ develop a pitch for why they find a company or deal interesting and what the value proposition is there ◉ leverage their unique BIPOC and/or international lived experience ◉ compete for fellowships that provide significant payouts for summer and full-time joiners - especially for women, BIPOC, veterans, and LGBTQIA+ candidates

I specialize in coaching students and early-career professionals who are targeting roles in investment banking, private equity, and corporate finance.

With two years as an Analyst at Moelis & Company, I bring a deep understanding of the demands and nuances of investment banking. As one of the first University of Georgia students to work at Moelis, I gained unique insights into breaking into competitive roles from non-traditional starting points. At Moelis, I led a financial literacy program educating NY area universities on accounting and valuation fundamentals. I also closely supported recruiting, leading the screening process for non-core candidates. My passion for mentorship stems from my own journey, including serving as the Head of the Investment Banking Training Program at UGA (the Corsair Society). In this role, I trained and mentored 32 candidates who secured IB roles in major financial hubs such as NYC, Boston, Atlanta, SF, and Charlotte.
