Sophie Kainz-Huber

Education: Bachelors, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU Munich), Germany; graduated in 2025

Subject: Business Administration

Sector(s) of interest: Consulting, Private Equity

My greatest challenge when I applied to business school: Figuring out my priorities for choosing a masters.

About me: Before joining the MiM programme at London Business School, I studied business administration at LMU Munich, including a semester abroad at Bocconi University in Italy.

Throughout these experiences, curiosity has always shaped the way I approach both work and life. I enjoy stepping into new environments, asking questions and figuring out what causes certain situations. That is also what drew me to consulting, where I gained experience at BCG, as well as private equity. Both allowed me to explore a wide range of companies and industries and understand what makes them different.

What energises me most, though, is people. I love spending time with friends, meeting new people and bringing different groups together. Sport has always been a big part of my life, from competing in karate to kickboxing. I am also always up for trying a new restaurant – I am much better at finding good food than cooking it myself.

I genuinely enjoy sharing experiences and helping others navigate decisions. So, if you are considering London Business School, I am always happy to share what I have learned, answer questions and give you an open perspective on life here.

Three topics I can be approached about: Breaking into consulting; making the most of your time in London; how to build your London Business School network.
