Private Equity Coaches, Events, and Resources

I built my career in Private Equity and Investment Banking by being both highly effective and highly trusted—well-liked by my teams and well-respected by leadership. Before PE, I earned offers at Credit Suisse and Jefferies, and in PE I worked across sourcing, diligence, and portfolio support while building a strong relationship with the Head of the division, giving me real insight into how top leaders evaluate talent. As a co-founder of US Hyperbarics, I also built a revenue-generating business from the ground up, demonstrating my entrepreneurial drive and hands-on leadership. As a coach, I bring insider experience and a people-first approach to help you stand out and win in competitive recruiting.

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.

Experience across large cap buyout private equity and elite boutique investment banking where I worked on multiple deals spanning buyouts, mergers and acquisitions, and restructuring. Networked and prepped extensively to break into investment banking and private equity from a non-target and want to help others do the same.

I began my career in M&A advisory at Morgan Stanley in Hong Kong, where I advised on cross-border transactions across Asia. I then joined EQT Partners, a leading global private equity firm, where I evaluated investments and supported portfolio company growth. Before that, I completed a 6-month internship at KKR during college, which first sparked my interest in private equity.

With nearly three decades advising boards, CEOs, and investors across private equity and venture-backed companies, I bring a deep understanding of what drives success in the PE ecosystem. I’ve partnered with leading sponsors including Thoma Bravo, KKR, Apollo, Blackstone, Clearlake, Insight, Francisco Partners, and Apax among many, many others to assess, recruit, and coach executives through transformational value-creation journeys — from pre-acquisition diligence to exit. Having completed 450+ executive placements and been directly involved in 40+ successful exits creating over $25B in enterprise value, I’ve developed an insider’s view of how talent decisions shape investment outcomes. That experience enables me to coach aspiring and current PE leaders with a pragmatic, investor-aligned lens — focused on readiness, impact, and the leadership behaviors that creates value.
