Hey there!
Tom here. A few years ago, I was in your shoes: I was spending my days on PrepLounge, full of anxiety about my upcoming McKinsey interviews. I did 125 mock interviews because I am what my first manager at McKinsey called an "insecure overachiever," a trait that most young MBB consultants share.
Today, I am back on PrepLounge for a few months, while I work as startup advisor before starting my next job (Tech PE). I am here mostly for one reason: consulting prep seems daunting because there is so much information and so many resources (Case in Point, Victor Cheng, PrepLounge, etc.) that it can easily stress you out. I am lucky because I am now older and have more perspective, so I can teach you what really matters.
I loved my time at McKinsey, and I think it really taught me how to think about businesses, their long-term strategies, and their short-term decision-making. I will try to teach you a way of thinking that will help you solve any problem, but I will pair that with a rigorous set of things to know for each specific case type.
I might be listed as a new PrepLounge coach, but I have a solid experience as a coach. Over the past 2 years, while getting my MBA from Berkeley Haas, I helped 50+ folks as a coach (paid by Berkeley to help their students) and mentored 20+ undergrad students to get into MBB or their dream consulting/finance job!
Outside of PrepLounge, I love yoga, meditation, surf, and classical music :)
Looking forward to working with you all!
