About
I started my career in consulting with experience in economic consulting at Cornerstone Research and strategy consulting at McKinsey. I then broke into VC through this non-traditional path and currently work as an Investor at Capital One Ventures, where I focus on venture-stage and growth-stage investing across Fintech & Commerce Enablement. I conduct the full due diligence process for investing decisions, partner with senior leadership on strategic integration, and work with founding teams. I specialize in: helping consultants break into VC; job seekers land MBB or strategy roles; and candidates refine their resume, interview skills, and test taking strategy for top-tier positions.
Soven also coaches for Venture Capital and Management Consulting. View all.
