At Morgan Stanley, I supported the Consumer & Retail Investment Banking group on M&A and capital raising. For a publicly traded food and beverage conglomerate divesting a brand, I prepared a confidential information memorandum, drafted a buyer list, and assisted with operating model and valuation analyses.

I also supported a global retail multinational’s board engagement by researching market size and competitors with Euromonitor and Capital IQ. I built a pivot table to synthesize category growth and margin data across international markets for internal discussions on strategy amid tariff headwinds.

At Pinewell Capital, I assessed buy-out and growth capital investments in industrials, including construction materials. I reviewed a company’s CIM and financials, developed an investment thesis, and assisted in constructing an LBO model; I also supported due diligence and investment materials for a potential bolt-on acquisition.
