Lending to PE/VC

Has anyone been able to transition from lending (i.e. commercial/corporate banking) into PE or VC? If not you personally have you seen anyone on your team make the move? For context, I currently work as an Underwriter for a fund banking team and work directly with PE/VC clients on capital call lines of credit. Previously worked as a commercial underwriter for typical LOC and term loans. I’m curious as to how people make the move which I have seen once before and plan to reach out to that former coworker but would like to hear from anyone on this forum. I have also thought of going the MBA route since my undergraduate isn’t the most “prestigious” but that also sounds too costly for it to be worth it IMO.
