Q&A: With Three Finance Rockstars (Blackstone, TA Associates, Carlyle)

Hi All, I'm an MBA student at Stanford organizing AMAs on Zoom with three classmates of mine who are former bankers and PE rockstars. We'll set up a video conference for you to ask them any questions you have, whether they are about breaking into banking, working at top PE funds, getting into a top MBA program, or anything else. If you are interested in joining the AMAs, please email me at Redacted and tell me which panelist your most interested in connecting with Here are the panelists' backgrounds: 1) Redacted 2) Redacted 3) Redacted Best, David
