Darren has been undertaking an internship with Ventures International Group as an Investment Analyst. He is an extremely driven and determined individual. He has worked on all projects very efficiently and responsively, and has demonstrated a strong willingness to learn, improve, and grow his professional skills. At Ventures International he has worked on several important projects (including researching PE, VC and Family Office investors, as well as performing important client company Enterprise Valuation exercises). He has been a tremendous asset, has helped out in many ways, and despite his numerous commitments, has always delivered on a timely basis, as well as very competently and professionally, Darren's is very personable, professional and well-presented. His many skills include his high level of proficiency with Excel and Financial Modelling. In summary, I can personally highly recommend Darren as a valuable asset to any firm.

I have worked with Darren in SIM Investment Networking Club, Student Managed Funds. On many occasions, he has led the group through tough times by constantly motivating the other members and has contributed significantly with his creative ideas. Darren also has excellent communication skills. He has the ability to establish trust and rapport right from the start due to his friendly and confident presence. These traits make him a great leader and he clearly has the capability to take on leadership positions in his future endeavours.
