Private Equity Coaches, Events, and Resources

I have seven years of experience working in Investment Banking & Private Equity. In the past, I have coached undergraduates, MBA students, and mid-career professionals how to transition into Finance roles. I provide a range of services such as career planning, interview prep, and mentorship. I am a high-energy and driven coach! My focus in Investment Banking was Consumer & Retail and M&A. My focus in Private Equity was Lower Middle Market & Middle Market.

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 a robust background in investment banking at Goldman Sachs and my current role at RedBird Capital Partners, I bring a wealth of experience in private equity to my coaching.

Whether you're looking to refine your application strategy or master the technical skills needed for a successful career in private equity, I'm here to help. Let's connect and chart your path to success!

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!

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. Post-grad, I've also mentored individuals as part of SEO, Women in Network, and Synergist Network. Mentorship is a huge passion of mine given I would not be here without the help of my mentors! 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.

I'm a former Bain Capital Private Equity investor and Stanford GSB MBA with experience across buyout and growth investing. Previously a Vice President at SKKY Partners, I've worked closely with founders and senior investors on complex transactions. I help candidates develop real investor judgement, strong case performance, and clarity under pressure. I'd love to work together and help you perform at your highest level.

After my time at Bain & Co, I moved to an Operating Partner role in a large Private Credit fund, where I lead our distressed turnarounds (similar to a PE turnaround). I work with all teams internally - Credit, Portfolio Management, and Origination - to manage and turnaround key portfolio companies and drive EBITDA improvements. I have deep experience with Private Equity / Private Credit interviews and recruiting.

Welcome to my profile! I bring a wealth of experience from the world of finance and private equity to help you confidently navigate your own path in this competitive field.

Currently, I serve as a Private Equity Vice President at a multi-billion-dollar activist hedge fund, helping to build out a private equity strategy. Alongside private equity, I’ve also worked extensively in opportunistic investing across the capital structure, which means I can guide you not only in PE but also in various types of investing roles.

I’ve spent my career working in private equity and investment banking, and I try to bring that real-world perspective into how I coach. Most recently, I was a Private Equity Associate at The Carlyle Group, where I worked on multi-billion dollar investments, built models, and partnered closely with management teams through the full investment process. Before that, I was an Investment Banking Analyst at Moelis & Company, where I developed a strong technical foundation in valuation and deal execution. I’m currently finishing my MBA at Harvard Business School and will be joining a private equity firm as a Vice President, so I have a clear, up-to-date view on what actually matters in recruiting today. I’ve also spent a lot of time mentoring and helping others navigate the process, which has shaped how I approach coaching. My focus isn’t just on getting you to the “right answer,” but on helping you think like an investor—building the judgment, communication skills, and intuition that top private equity firms are really looking for.

I spent 3 years working at Sylva (PE fund buying training / L&D firms) as an Operating Partner. I ran their Chief of Staff and BizOps Network businesses, growing them 40% YoY. I reported directly to the CEO / Managing Partner. I was brought into Sylva by way of acquisition; my company Upslope was a training firm for Operations professionals. I started a search fund, diligenced 100+ companies, acquired one, and have grown it 30% YoY. I am in the process of acquiring another company to bolt-on.
