I broke into private equity at 19, landed an investment banking job offer mid-flight, and joined KKR straight out of undergrad. Since then, I’ve led ~$3B in deals across buyout, growth, and venture, working directly with founders, CEOs, and billion-dollar funds. I know how to navigate high-stakes, prestige-driven environments without losing your edge. I’m especially passionate about helping non-target, underrepresented, and ambitious students shortcut the learning curve, land top roles, and carry themselves with both confidence and clarity. I don’t just teach how to break in—I show you how to belong once you're in.
