Welcome to my profile! With 5 years in investment banking and private equity, I bring experience to help you navigate private equity and investment banking recruiting. I currently work as an Associate at Silver Lake in their New York office, following my tenure as an Investment Banking Associate and Analyst at Moelis & Company in their Los Angeles and New York offices where I was heavily involved in recruiting. Over the years, I've successfully coached many individuals, guiding them through the intricacies of private equity recruitment and helping them secure positions at top firms. I served as a Director of Mentorship at Trojan Investing Society (USC's largest finance organization), where I mentored a cohort of 30 students navigating investment banking recruiting. I also was a Peer Career Advisor at USC's Career Services Center where I guided students through finance careers including investment banking and investing.

Whether you need assistance with interview strategy and preparation, technical concepts, resume / story refinement, or networking strategies, I'm here to provide tailored support to your needs. I'm well versed to talk about on cycle and off cycle recruiting (secured one UMM and two MF offers), recruiting across geographies (making the move east / west), along with general exit options / exit timing in banking (including staying on as A2A or doing a third year), and external resources or organizations you can join for more touchpoints with private equity firms. Let's connect and get started on your path to success in private equity!

Welcome to my profile! I began my career in Morgan Stanley’s Consumer & Retail Group in 2018, and then joined TPG in 2021, where I worked across growth and middle market private equity investments. I also worked with TPG’s C-suite to launch TPG NEXT, a GP-stakes fund where I evaluated hundreds of opportunities across asset classes, and was involved in supporting experienced investors in launching and building their own firms. I left in 2025 to pursue my own entrepreneurial journey. During my time at TPG I was involved with associate recruiting, candidate evaluation, case study reviews, and training of new associates and interns. Having seen the industry from multiple angles, I understand how to position yourself strategically to stand out in your interview process and career. I can help with: - Recruiting from non-target schools into competitive finance seats - Navigating associate performance, deal exposure, and internal mobility - Thinking about life after finance (exit options, MBA, entrepreneurship, sabbaticals) - You’re a more experienced investor and want insight on the ins/outs of launching a fund My specialties are: crafting a competitive resume and story, navigating your recruiting process, and technical interview/case study prep. Always happy to schedule an intro call first. Looking forward to working together!

I've successfully navigated the highly competitive growth equity recruiting process, securing offers at Blackstone, General Atlantic, Norwest Venture Partners, and Lead Edge Capital. Most recently, I worked as an Analyst at Lead Edge Capital, where I focused on sourcing and evaluating investment opportunities. I've coached students who have landed roles at top growth equity and private equity firms, including Blackstone, General Atlantic, and Lead Edge. My specialty is helping candidates break into sourcing-focused growth equity analyst programs. These roles require a different skill set than traditional private equity (less modeling, more market mapping and deal origination), and I know exactly what firms are looking for because I've been on both sides of the process. Whether you need help with case studies, networking strategy, or understanding how to position yourself for sourcing roles, I can help you stand out in one of the most competitive recruiting processes in finance. I'm also a Stanford GSB deferred admit, so I understand how to build a long-term career trajectory in growth investing.

With three years as an investor on American Securities’ Investment Team, I bring a comprehensive understanding of the private equity recruiting process, including on-cycle and off-cycle interviews, and navigating headhunter relationships. At American Securities, I was promoted to Senior Associate after my second year and played a pivotal role in the due diligence of new investments and portfolio company management through add-on acquisition due diligence and general strategy support. In addition to my investment experience, I contributed significantly to recruiting efforts, including partnering with third-party organizations like SEO to advance diversity in the industry and directly interviewing / screening investment banking analysts.

I’m a life-longer learner and giver (through my experiences and my network). Happy to help those that are interested and navigating the path within Investment Banking or Private Equity. Friendly, approachable and always reachable/responsive!

I’ve spent a meaningful part of my career on the investing side, working in private equity and leading acquisition efforts, and later advising founder-led businesses through transactions. That experience gave me a clear view into how investment professionals actually evaluate companies, make decisions, and think about risk, upside, and positioning. I’ve also been on the other side of the table working with operators and founders, which is often where candidates struggle to connect their experience to what investors are really looking for. Breaking into private equity is not just about credentials. It’s about how you position your experience, how you think about businesses, and how you communicate that in a way that resonates with investors. I help candidates understand how the process actually works, what differentiates strong candidates, and how to close the gap between where they are and where they want to be. My approach is grounded in real-world experience across deals, hiring, and working alongside investment teams, not generic recruiting advice.
