Private Equity Coaches, Events, and Resources

Recruiting for private equity was a difficult process for me, especially while I was working 80+ hours in a full-time investment banking role. I was able to make an effective schedule to prepare for interviews that was efficiently tailored to how to succeed in the PE interviews. I am excited to share my knowledge as well as wealth of resources to help you land your dream job in PE.

My private equity experience is hands-on, not adjacent: I worked at a distressed PE firm during my MBA and spent seven years at Citi in EMEA, reaching AVP, building the financial and analytical foundation PE recruiters test for. I've also sat through a real M&A transaction from the integration side at Accenture, so I understand deals as they actually play out, not just as case studies. I coach the full breaking-in process — story, technicals, and the modelling-and-judgment combination PE interviews demand — with direct, no-fluff feedback from someone who's lived the work.

I bring five years of Private Equity experience in London at a leading mid-market fund, where I evaluated hundreds of companies and worked on transactions totaling over $1 billion in enterprise value. I was the only woman on the investment team of ~50 professionals and was promoted to Investment Manager within 2.5 years, the first female at my firm to reach that level. I served as a board observer and worked closely with management teams on growth strategy, acquisitions, and operational improvements, from SaaS pricing and go-to-market design to senior hiring. Because I’ve sat on the investor side of the table, I understand exactly how investment committees think, what makes a deal compelling, and why strong candidates sometimes get rejected. As a coach, I help clients translate their background into a clear “investor narrative,” sharpen commercial judgment, and practice real case-style discussions so they can confidently navigate interviews and succeed once on the job. I help women to break into private equity.

I have significant experience recruiting for jobs in finance, including both private equity associate and hedge fund roles. I also served as an interviewer and mentor for junior employees during my time in finance, so I am well-positioned to help current students or people in other roles make the transition. I am excited to help and can assist with anything throughout the process, from resume review and networking to case studies, final round interviews, and deciding between offers. Feel free to reach out and looking forward to getting in touch!

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.

Welcome to my profile! I’m currently a Private Equity Associate at Abry Partners, a Boston-based firm managing over $18B in assets. I began my career in Investment Banking at Solomon Partners and graduated from the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business. At Solomon, I was actively involved in recruiting — interviewing and screening 50+ candidates — and developed a strong sense of what top firms are really looking for. I’ve since gone through the on-cycle private equity process myself and know how tough and opaque it can feel, especially without the right guidance. I’m here to help demystify the process — whether you’re prepping for IB/PE interviews, refining your story, or just trying to break in. Let’s connect.
