Private Equity Coaches, Events, and Resources

I worked at two generalist private equity firms focused on control investing in the middle market. I was able to successfully navigate the rigorous onboarding process each firm had - including a challenging case study under a time limit. During my experience in private equity, I was given the opportunity to invest in both domestic and international companies (US, UK, Romania) and had an average deal size of $100M. I enjoy helping clients navigate the PE recruiting cycle and strengthen their investment approach, technical capabilities, and nail their PE interviews. After my time in private equity, I was fortunate to attend HBS and can help clients differentiate if they are coming from a traditional background.

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! I have experience in mega-fund and middle-market private equity. Together, we can work through networking strategies to land an interview; behavrioral, technical, case study, and modeling interview preparation; offer management / negotiation, and strategies to be successful on the job once you land an offer. We can also align on what type of firm (mega-fund vs. middle-market) best aligns with your career goals. Breaking into private equity is challenging but rewarding, and I'm delighted to guide you on this part of your career path. I bring a warm, practical approach to coaching and can't wait to meet you!

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!

worked in advent and nexxus as analyst, associate and lead of investor relations and fundraising.

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.

I successfully broke into Bain Capital’s Tokyo office as a non-Japanese MBA candidate—an uncommon and highly competitive path that required sharp positioning, cultural fluency, and a deep understanding of what leading private equity firms look for. Over the course of recruiting, I received multiple offers from Asia-focused megafunds and was invited to final rounds at many others, giving me a well-rounded view of how top firms evaluate candidates at each stage. Japan’s private equity market is undergoing a significant transformation, with strong structural tailwinds and rising deal flow creating exciting opportunities for those willing to navigate its unique dynamics. If you’re curious about breaking into PE in Japan—or Asia more broadly—I can help you assess the market, sharpen your investor story, and craft a pitch that resonates with regional nuances. I also coach MBA candidates more generally on how to break into private equity from a non-finance background. That includes evaluating the true feasibility of your candidacy, mastering technical prep, and translating your prior experience into a compelling narrative for top-tier firms. Whether you’re aiming to land a specific offer or weighing PE as a long-term path, I provide clear, candid, and strategic advice rooted in firsthand experience.

Private Equity Investing Associate with previous bulge-bracket Investment Banking Experience. I'm fit to help candidates break into Private Equity because I was an underqualified candidate who used a proactive networking and self-education strategy to stand out in the interview process and ace the technicals. When I quit my Track & Field team to pursue Investment Banking in college, I was already behind my peers' technical prep, recruiting, and club experience. I spent the next few years playing catch-up, which prepared me for the very fast on-cycle recruiting process for Private Equity Associates. All of this is to say, I understand how you may feel like there are many candidates that are more qualified than you or have overcome greater struggles, but I can help you position yourself to get your dream job.
