Manage pre-deal roles including, but not limited to, sourcing opportunities, evaluating those opportunities, and ultimately valuing them. Additionally, I work extensively post-deal with the CEOs and senior teams of the portfolio companies to optimize strategy, operations, and regulatory pathway.

Chicago

Worked on strategic projects across a wide variety of industries and functions* Led 4-person client team to implement large-scale lean initiative in largest BU of large confections plant* Managed a team of 5 (2 consultants and 3 top performing client managers) implementing a massive strategy shift in client engagement across 4 regions and over 60 branches for a large retail bank* Created multi-billion dollar go-to-market strategy for aerospace entrant outlining strengths and multibillion dollar gap in previous plan* Executed strategic assessment of key issues of $10B medtech company for new CEO: indicated issues requiring immediate resolution, outlined path forward, and led executive-level workshop to revitalize withering brand* Performed valuation of a ~$10B downstream oil business (refineries, pipelines, marketing) * Developed data-driven salesforce strategy saving >$100M/yr and reducing complexity for large pharmaceuticals firm* Analyzed the impact of rising labor prices in China and the advent of cheap shale natural gas on the North American Chemicals market* Designed a strategic org restructuring of the International Markets BU of a $10B CPG company (>180 countries served) leading to over $25M/yr in savings

Greater New York City Area

* Designed and implemented a study to track the individual costs relevant to putting out micro and nano loans in the United States* Analyzed data from across the Accion US network and quantified their strengths and weaknesses for fundraising and growth opportunities.

Greater Chicago Area

Did research for the LIGO collaboration as part of Northwestern's theoreticals astrophysics group, CIERA* Developed first-ever software incorporating advanced stellar evolution physics into binary star evolution to determine LIGO's likelihood of detecting mergers of pairs of black holes, neutron stars, and white dwarfs.* The LIGO collaboration received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2017 for the successful detection of gravitational waves emitted by merging black holes. This detection verified to extreme precision Einstein's General Theory of Relativity and opened up an entirely new way of observing the dark side of the universe.

Pasadena, Ca

* Discovered several novel ways to observe super-massive black hole pairs in distant galaxies* Found one of the few analytic solutions to dynamical fluid flow known to understand shocks in a gaseous disk around merging super massive black holes* Wrote a 1D fluid dynamics code modeling the dynamics of gaseous disks around black holes* Shared my work at multiple conferences and over 10 top institutions.* Collaborated in high impact and high stress environments with strict time constraints.

Meyer Lab

* Demonstrated technology required for running a large-scale balloon-borne experiment to observe the yet unseen first stars of the universe

* Worked in collaborative environment to solve various problems relevant to radio wave propagation in the atmosphere.

Ph.D., Astrophysics

Thesis focused on finding visible tracers of binary super-massive black holes in distant galaxies.
