Hi Everyone -

I'm a Wharton Undergrad and MBA with experience in Investment Banking, Strategy & Operations at an Ad-Tech Startup, and currently working in strategy consulting. I'm at the very beginning stages of investigating a self-funded search with some colleagues (also MBAs and Consultants). I would also be open to the right partner for a traditional search.

Hoping to connect with anyone who's interested in meeting. Open to any and all advice, and, of course, leads.

Hi Alex, it is great to meet you. My name is Aashish Prabakaran, and I am a rising sophomore at Ohio State University interested in Investment Banking and Private Equity. I have experience in Operations and Search Funds and would love to speak with you about possibly helping out with your search as an unpaid part-time intern. Thanks!
