Riana’s Investment Banking Qualifications
Experience level: Senior Associate
20+ people coached for Investment Banking
Open to working with clients outside the U.S.
I have coached tons of people and have interviewed lots of people. I am school captain for Harvard and MIT recruiting at Morgan Stanley’s Technology IBD group. I am an excellent story teller and can help you prep your pitch and for behavioral questions. I also came into banking with no finance background so can help you really break down the technicals. After working at Bridgewater Associates, I managed to secure offers from Morgan Stanley’s Tech Investment Banking group and Goldman Sach’s TMT group in SF. I am kind and understanding but also honest with my feedback. I can help you put your best foot forward with banking recruiting.

About Riana
My clients have been admitted to HBS, Stanford GSB, MIT Sloan, Darden, Columbia, Tuck, Booth, and Berkeley Haas. When I started my business school journey I did not know a single person who had gone to a top business school. I did not work at a target top tier company and none of my recommenders had experience with MBA recommendation letters. To get into my dream MBA programs I built a network, and spent time figuring out the blueprint to the various MBA programs, and was eventually offered full rides by multiple schools. While at MIT Sloan, I served on Sloan Senate as the head of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and spent a ton of time with the Heads of Admission to really understand what set mediocre candidates apart from excellent ones. My clients are diverse and range from first-gen folks to consultants to entrepreneurs to nonprofit folks. I'm an empathetic yet honest coach and am very effective at what I do. My background is in entrepreneurship, consulting, venture capital and most recently banking and finance.
Why do I coach?
I am a Technology Investment Banker at Morgan Stanley during the day and take on a limited number of clients because I want to help aspiring applicants. I aim for efficiency and 30-60 minutes with me may just have a huge impact. Let's help you make your dreams come true! During IB recruiting I also received offers from Goldman Sachs' TMT group amidst other banks.
