Could you please walk me through your career path? Please start with your experiences in college. Did you have any internships or jobs before your current role?
Absolutely. I attended Yale University and graduated in 2017 with a bachelor's degree in economics. While at Yale, I was very involved with extracurriculars on campus.
My sophomore year, I did two consulting externships with Bane and BCG. They were both a couple days to a week long, just to get a taste of consulting. Then, I studied abroad that summer.
My junior summer, I interned at a private equity group called The Riverside Group in Cleveland. I was a summer analyst working on their deals teams, with intake as well as outreach, and doing a lot of research and due diligence on all of their target companies.
After I graduated, I went full-time into my role at Accenture. I started as a strategy analyst, moved up to strategy senior analyst, and then to strategy consultant, where I am now.
