Hey there, fellow finance enthusiast! Your background is quite diverse and impressive, and it's great to see your interest in the finance sector.

Given your background and interests, a Master's in Management (MiM) program with a finance track could be a great fit. The ESCP MiM program you mentioned is a solid choice, especially with its Investment Banking track. This program is known for its flexibility and could be a good fit for someone with a non-traditional background like yours.

However, if you're specifically interested in Venture Capital, Startups, and Consulting, you might also want to consider programs that offer a strong grounding in strategy and entrepreneurship. For instance, the MSc Economics and Strategy for Business at Imperial College London or the MPhil in Innovation, Strategy and Organisation at the University of Cambridge could be worth looking into.

Remember, while a quantitative background can be beneficial in finance, it's not the only path. Your diverse background could provide a unique perspective that's highly valued in fields like VC and consulting.

Lastly, don't forget to consider the networking opportunities and alumni network of the programs you're considering, as these can be crucial in landing roles in your desired field.

Hope this helps, and best of luck with your decision!
