I am a finance professional with experience across private credit, multi-asset investing, and client advisory. I began my career at Schroders, where I supported senior portfolio managers in multi-asset research, macro analysis, and client deliverables. I later joined Arcmont Asset Management, working in a client-facing role that strengthened my understanding of private markets, fundraising strategy, and institutional investor needs.
Alongside professional experience, I hold the IMC and CFA Level I, and I am currently preparing for the GMAT Focus with the goal of pursuing a STEM-designated MBA in the US. My long-term ambition is to specialise in private equity, private credit, or sports-focused investing, combining analytical discipline with commercial execution.

Priyanka here from ARINGO. Speaking about your profile, your background is actually a strong fit for Cornell, especially given your experience across multi-asset research at Schroders and client-facing work in private credit at Arcmont — that combination shows both analytical depth and commercial exposure, which MBA programs value.
Your IMC + CFA Level I also help signal technical strength. Since you’re targeting VC or private markets after the MBA, Johnson’s investment and PE/Venture networks could work well, but your competitiveness will depend heavily on your GMAT score, because schools look for clear academic readiness when applicants come from finance roles. A well-framed story around why you want to pivot into VC, plus how your mix of public/private markets experience positions you uniquely, can make your profile compelling.
I’d be happy to offer you a free profile review for your target programs to see where you stand and how to boost your chances, happy to help!
No pressure, no strings - just helpful insights on where you stand and how you can strengthen your chances.
