Built by Analysts, For Analysts

We started omarionte because we couldn't find the kind of practical corporate finance training we wished we'd had when climbing the ranks ourselves.

From Frustration to Foundation

Back in 2019, I was staring at a valuation model at 11 PM, wondering why nobody had taught me the shortcuts that would've saved me three hours. The textbooks covered theory beautifully. The certification programs tested memorization skills. But when it came to the messy reality of corporate finance work — the kind where your MD wants three scenarios by morning and the data's incomplete — we were all figuring it out alone.

That's when we realized something: the best finance education happens in cubicles and conference rooms, not lecture halls.

omarionte grew from late-night conversations with fellow analysts who shared the same frustrations. We'd swap Excel tricks, debate valuation approaches, and help each other navigate the unwritten rules of corporate finance. What started as informal mentoring sessions became something much bigger — a structured way to pass along the practical wisdom that makes the difference between surviving and thriving in this field.

Experience-Driven Curriculum

Every module in our programs comes from situations we've actually encountered. Whether it's modeling a tech startup's revenue projections with limited historical data or presenting sensitivity analysis to skeptical board members, our curriculum reflects the complexity and nuance of real corporate finance work. We don't just teach concepts — we teach judgment, intuition, and the kind of practical problem-solving that makes analysts invaluable.

The People Behind the Programs

Our team combines decades of corporate finance experience with a genuine passion for developing analytical talent.

Dr. Astrid Kowalski

Senior Financial Strategist

Astrid spent twelve years in investment banking before joining us in early 2021. She has this knack for breaking down complex financial structures into digestible pieces — probably because she's explained countless M&A deals to executives who needed to understand the implications, not just the numbers. Her approach to teaching mirrors her consulting style: practical, thorough, and surprisingly engaging.

Rebecca Thornfield

Corporate Finance Director

Rebecca joined omarionte after eight years as a senior analyst at two major Australian corporations. She understands the pressure of delivering accurate financial analysis under tight deadlines because she's lived it. Her specialty is helping analysts develop the confidence to present their work effectively — a skill that often makes the difference between being heard and being overlooked in corporate environments.

Strategic Perspective

We teach you to think beyond the numbers. Every financial analysis serves a strategic purpose, and understanding that context is what separates good analysts from great ones.
