What draws me to private equity is the opportunity to combine a rigorous diligence mindset with true ownership over outcomes. In my pre-MBA role at L.E.K., I developed a strong foundation in evaluating businesses through due diligence, but I was always one step removed from both the investment decision and what happened post-close. Private equity offers the chance to not only underwrite a business, but to stay engaged and help shape its trajectory over time.
