Investment Banking Coaches, Events, and Resources

With direct investment banking and investing experience across multiple sectors, I bring a well-rounded perspective to help you target and excel in specialized groups. At Lazard, I worked directly on Media & Telecommunications mandates, gaining firsthand exposure to the strategic and financial nuances of the industry. I also supported several Restructuring (RX) engagements during my internship, giving me practical experience with distressed situations and debt advisory, and I’ve since helped clients successfully place into top restructuring groups at elite boutiques. In addition, I gained Financial Institutions Group (FIG) experience through my work on an insurance-focused private equity investment, developing a strong understanding of how investors and banks evaluate capital-intensive, regulated businesses. Beyond traditional coverage groups, I’ve recruited for and coached candidates into Energy investment banking, having gone through the Houston recruiting process myself and understanding both the technical depth and industry-specific expectations of those roles. I also bring experience in Software, having worked on a growth-stage software investment and successfully coached multiple clients into leading software-focused growth equity and private equity firms. This cross-sector exposure allows me to provide tailored coaching not only on technical and market-specific preparation, but also on how to differentiate yourself for specialized groups. Whether you are targeting Media & Telecom, FIG, Energy, Software, or Restructuring, I can help you craft a compelling story, sharpen your technicals, and position yourself as a top candidate.

Having successfully recruited for numerous banks, I worked at Goldman Sachs for 5 years most recently in the TMT team in Investment Banking.

Throughout my professional career, I have mentored numerous people who are looking to break into investment banking at various levels and have been able to develop a deep set of skills that can help you in your recruiting journey. I’ve distilled my experience and insights into a clear, effective program designed to make sure you feel confident and prepared for each and every part of the recruitment process.

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 recruited into investment banking out of college and experienced many of the same struggles and roadblocks that I know you are. Because of my lower GPA, I doubled down on my networking and technical / behavioral interview prep, and I eventually received multiple bulge-bracket and boutique offers. I can help you learn the technicals, prepare you for a modeling test, help you with your resume, or help you think through your overall recruiting strategy. I can show you what helped me learn all of those skills, and I can also give you insights on what we looked for in candidates and discussed after interviews that can help you stand out.
