Davis Mills `26

Prior to CBS I spent six years in asset management working in portfolio management and investment research at Hall Capital Partners, a $50bn Outsourced Chief Investment Officer. Since being at CBS I interned at a generalist seed stage venture capital fund called Divergent Capital, Santander’s Investment Bank focused on Real Estate, Gaming, & Lodging, and am currently interning at Verlinvest, a growth equity firm focused on the consumer space. I am passionate about how the consumer, hospitality, entertainment, and technology sectors positively impact our lives.

I was first introduced to PE in my previous work experience but have been able to dive deeper on the subject at CBS. In addition to taking the private equity curriculum, I am an active member of the PE club by attending company visits, speakers, panels, and conferences. I was also a spring intern at an early-stage generalist called Divergent Capital, and am currently a PE Field Study intern for Verlinvest, a growth equity firm focused on the consumer space. PE excites me because of its dynamic challenges, long term investment horizon, and transformative nature.
