About Asha

I’m an Harvard Business School grad with over 7 years of experience in investment banking, VC and PE. I offer coaching for MBA applications, investment banking, venture capital and private equity. Over the last 5 years of coaching, I have helped over 85 candidates get into the school, fund or bank of their choice and launch into their dream jobs. I charge more than some of the other coaches to offer premium coaching if you are looking for tailored coaching to put you in the top 1% of applicants: (1) I am the most experienced coach in terms of PE/IB recruiting on the Leland platform (and was ranked #1 coach on Leland last year overall!). I know all the main headhunters and most of the funds and banks really well (2) I keep my schedule flexible so that if you need urgent help I can make myself available at short notice and make sure I am there to help you with anything you need (3) I invest a lot more time preparing for sessions to tailor it to you and give you addressable points, such as taking detailed notes and creating session plans - PRIVATE EQUITY - I worked at Apax Partners ($60bn AUM) as a Senior Associate where I had interviewed and evaluated several analyst and associate applicants. I've spent my career in New York and London and can speak to the working styles and culture in both places. I have helped several candidates get offers from top funds (Blackstone, BainCap, KKR, Apax, HIG, Vista, Thoma Bravo, amongst others). Having been on the other side of the table, I understand the importance of preparing well and acing the resume, interview and case study to land your dream role. - INVESTMENT BANKING - I spent 5-years at top investment banks (J.P. Morgan, Deutsche Bank) and received 5+ offers from other top bulge bracket banks. As a senior associate in banking, I reviewed applications and interviewed candidates for analyst and associate roles regularly, and therefore I understand the process and what is takes to succeed well. I have helped several students get offers from top banks including J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Barclays, Morgan Stanley to name a few. - MBA APPLICATIONS AND APPLYING TO HARVARD - I have been offering MBA and application coaching for the last 4-years, focusing on acing your application to Harvard Business School. I will work with you to refine your story, craft your essay and create a personalised timeline suited to your needs and level of prep. I have helped more than twelve students get offers from Harvard over the past two years and I look forward to helping give you your best shot! - VENTURE CAPITAL - I have been an active angel investor since 2019 and have a strong network within VC in the US and Europe. I interned with General Catalyst and Dawn Capital and have helped several candidates land a role at their dream VC fund. I spend time carefully tailoring a package for your journey, from resume and LinkedIn review, to building a networking strategy and creating a role for yourself!
