Colleen Maloney

Overview

Colleen brings the profile every firm is looking for in early-investment banking talent — academic excellence (3.96 GPA at Georgetown), multi-fellowship MAP experience as a freshman, structured execution ability, and demonstrated leadership across sprint cycles. She has experience with Morgan Stanley Sales & Trading and Vista Equity Partners, where she owned income statement builds, diligence, balance-sheet assumptions, and sprint backlog management. Colleen communicates clearly, absorbs feedback quickly, and has operated inside multiple MAP workflows with maturity well beyond her year. High-trust, high-output, and a player who compounds rapidly with reps — a long-term pipeline asset.

Strengths

• Academic standout (3.96) with strong quant fundamentals and LSE microeconomic training.
• MAP multi-fellowship track record — Vista + MS S&T + Pro Bowl Games, all before sophomore year.
• Leadership engine — Scrum Master experience, backlog ownership, meeting facilitation, delivery management.
• Equity research exposure through GCI with valuation, pitch-building, and sector analysis.

Areas for Development

• More hands-on technical reps (three-statement linking, DCF/LBO layering) will unlock next level quickly.
• Opportunity to increase financial storytelling confidence as comp and model depth expands.
• Upside tied to skill compounding — foundation is already strong as a freshman, ceiling is high.

Projection

Colleen projects as a complete, well-rounded investment banking prospect — polished academically, battle-tested through multiple MAP pipelines, confident in team-based workstreams, and poised to grow into a strong analyst candidate with continued modeling reps. One of the safest bets in the early pipeline — high floor, high ceiling, and strong evidence she’ll thrive as responsibility increases. A recruit firms should track early and invest in long-term.
