Whitney Dean
BIO
Hello, my name is Whitney Dean. I am currently an Investor Relations Analyst at Goldman Sachs Asset & Wealth Management, sitting within the Alternatives Capital Formation group on the Private Credit team. In my role, I support fundraising and investor communications across both institutional and private wealth channels, helping manage fund reporting, investor materials, and client servicing efforts.
Prior to Goldman, I worked at Cambridge Associates in Dallas on the Private Client team, conducting manager due diligence, portfolio analysis, and investment recommendations for high-net-worth families and foundations. I graduated from Southern Methodist University in 2023 with a B.B.A. in Finance with a specialization in Alternative Asset Management.
As someone who navigated the recruiting process without an immediate network in finance, I know how valuable mentorship and open conversations can be. I’m happy to chat about breaking into the alternatives space, investor relations, navigating early career pivots, or anything else that would be helpful. Please don’t hesitate to reach out!
