Venture Capital is an exciting yet elusive industry to break into, especially if you’re not from a traditional background like top-tier consulting firms (McKinsey, Bain, BCG) or a startup operator role. I made the transition into a global impact investing fund, despite being from a non-traditional background.


I can help you:

Craft Your Story – Position your experience effectively, whether you're coming from finance, startups, or a completely different sector.

Build the Right Skills – What skills VCs value and how to gain them outside of traditional paths.

Networking & Outreach – How to connect with partners, associates, and LPs strategically.

Acing VC Interviews – Insights into case studies, deal evaluations, and key questions.

Charting Your Path – Whether it’s starting in investing, working at a portfolio company, or another route.

With first-hand experience navigating this journey, I’ll share tips, resources, and frameworks that worked for me! Let’s strategize your VC break-in.
