Berkeley. Harvard Law. BigLaw. Consulting. BigLaw again.
Genuinely a great guy. We had to roast him anyway.

The Man, The Myth

Let's be honest.

500+ connections. 1,447 followers. Zero posts. He is building an audience for a show he has not announced.

Berkeley Men's Octet

Eight-part harmony. Coordinated blazers. Actually a good singer. The most impressive thing on his resume. Buried under three law jobs.

Every Restaurant, Every Time

Chicken tikka masala. Naan. Never wavers. Never questions it. If only he brought this energy to career decisions.

To His Credit

By all accounts, a great dad. No notes. The man shows up for his kid in a way he has never shown up for a single law firm. Respect.

The Career

A trilogy.

1BigLaw — Harvard Business Law Review editor. Ready to change the world. The world is billing at $400/hr.Out
2BCG — Makes decks. Flies a lot. Realizes "strategic advice" ≠ fulfillment.Also out
3Cooley (Tech M&A) — Returns. Higher rate. Same hours. Megs believes in him.Jury out

Additional Evidence

More things on the record.

The Proposal

Proposed on a helicopter pad. One knee. Professionally documented. More commitment shown in this single moment than to any single employer. Meghana said yes.

05.12.18

DTLA engagement shoot. Full suits. Multiple outfit changes. Married Megs, May 12, 2018. This is what conviction looks like. Take notes, resume.

The Harvard Seal Incident

When Harvard retired its shield — a slaveholder's family crest — Parth argued it should stay, on the grounds of tradition. The institution disagreed. He lost. He has since demonstrated a general ability to adapt. Except, as noted, professionally.
