VC Intern Introduction

Hello all,

I currently intern at a venture capital fund in my hometown, and will be a sophomore at The Ohio State University in the fall. I am interested in pursuing a career in investment banking and/or private equity. My situation is unique, being that I played junior hockey after high school graduation and will be a 21 year old sophomore in the fall. Unfortunately, due to injury I will not be participating in collegiate athletics. I look forward to leveraging my experience in VC this summer and finding a PE/IB internship for next summer (going into my junior year). Please reach out with any questions about my experience in VC, I will do my best to assist fellow users!

Why not try to stay in VC? IMO it's far more interesting...
