Venture Capitalist in the Bay Area that graduated from UC Berkeley in 2015 with a BA in Economics. I provide career advice and interview preparation services. As a financier and former tech banker, I have worked on over 100 transactions with over $1.5 billion in total deal volume. Upon graduating from UC Berkeley, I interviewed at over 50 firms in various segments of finance (venture capital, investment banking, private equity, hedge fund, commercial banking, and more) to ensure I chose the career path that was a perfect fit for me, so I have an advanced understanding of what is expected of candidates in these various roles. Additionally, I hire 2 interns each summer, so am well-equipped to help answer questions about what I look for in prospective interns.
In addition to my interview preparation services, I have mastered financial modeling and Microsoft Excel. I have many different financial models and case studies to review to help you master your understanding of these subjects and prepare you for a career in these disciplines. I have an extensive library of everything from beginner LBO models to technical merger models.
If you have any more questions about me and if I could help you in your classes or career, or both, please don't hesitate to contact me. There is no such thing as a stupid question, and I do not bite!

In my pursuit to find the best possible first job out of college for myself, I interviewed at over fifty firms in the past two years. From hedge funds, investment banks, venture capital, private equity, corporate development teams at tech companies such as Google and Oracle, and obviously management consultant firms, I have seen it all and what these firms expect you to know for your first round interviews for these entry-level positions. I could assist in preparing you for these interviews as well (or how to better prepare yourself to land yourself interviews in this field of corporate finance), and have access to many interview guides to help.
