In this episode, Avi shares his unusual path from investment banking, to running a magazine start-up and then back into investment banking two years later. After that re-entry into finance, Avi was able to lateral to an IR role at a private equity fund and eventually became COO of Riverside's European Fund 7 years later. Finally, he made the bold (and I'd argue crazy) move to pursue a phD while working and everntually found himself at Landmark, a private equity fund focused on the secondary market, running the quant research division.
