Private Equity Coaches, Events, and Resources

Over the past 20 years, I have helped scores of MBA students achieve their goals to be in private equity. Whether on the investment or operations side of the industry, I advised them on how to network to build relationships, tell their stories about the value they could add, and nail their interviews.

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.

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.

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.

Alpine CIT Class of 2021 alum! Since then, I’ve helped many applicants navigate the Alpine interview process through mock interviews, strategy sessions, and candid feedback - several have gone on to receive offers from Alpine and other CXO programs. The Alpine and Shore Capital interviews are a unique “deep dive” experience, so please note that I am not the best fit for traditional PE Ops' consulting-style case prep.

I bring deep, hands-on experience from the world of private equity, having been a PE associate and then led and scaled PE-backed businesses as President and operator. I understand firsthand the recruiting process, the diligence required to evaluate opportunities, and the expectations PE firms have for top talent. With an MBA from Stanford, I’ve built my career navigating the intersection of finance, strategy, and operational leadership—skills I now use to help clients break into and thrive in private equity. My coaching blends insider knowledge of how PE firms think with practical, tactical guidance on resumes, interviews, case prep, and networking. Whether you’re a consultant or banker targeting the buy side, or a professional exploring a transition into PE-backed operating roles, I’ll help you position your story, sharpen your skills, and approach the process with confidence. Clients come away not just prepared for the mechanics of recruiting, but with the insight and judgment to stand out to firms seeking future leaders.
