With over 30 years of experience in the data industry—13 of those focused on data science—I’ve had an incredible journey through roles like Data Scientist, Senior Data Scientist, Head of Data Science, and now Chief Data Officer. Along the way, I’ve overseen major data initiatives, built high-performing teams, and developed a deep understanding of what it takes to succeed in this field. For the past 15 years, I’ve been passionate about coaching in data science and artificial intelligence. I’ve helped professionals land their first internships, secure their dream jobs, and grow into leadership roles. I’ve reviewed thousands of resumes, interviewed hundreds of candidates, and learned exactly what stands out in a competitive market.

I work at Microsoft leading AI penetration testing and AI application security initiatives, where I help secure real world AI systems used at enterprise scale.

I understand how AI teams are structured, what skills are valued, and how candidates from adjacent backgrounds like cybersecurity, software engineering, product, data, or IT can realistically transition into AI focused roles. Beyond my technical leadership work, I have coached hundreds of professionals on career transitions into competitive and emerging fields. I specialize in helping clients reposition their experience, build credible AI aligned narratives, and target roles strategically rather than chasing hype driven job titles. Whether you are trying to break into AI engineering, AI security, AI product, or AI strategy, I provide practical guidance grounded in how hiring decisions are actually made inside large tech organizations.

I bring over 20 years of experience at the intersection of technology / AI, strategy, and leadership to my coaching practice. Having led teams through massive growth and industry shifts, I’ve seen firsthand how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming careers, leadership, and business strategy. Today, I help leaders harness AI not just as a tool, but as a catalyst for personal growth, team performance, and organizational success. My own career journey didn’t follow a traditional path. I built my executive career by leveraging diverse experiences spanning engineering, consulting, product marketing, and product management to differentiate myself and stand out in a competitive field. Now, I help others do the same, blending practical leadership experience with AI-driven insights to accelerate their careers. As VP of Product Management at Bill.com, I helped grow company revenue by over 10x to nearly $1B ARR. My leadership roles at companies like Intuit, LinkedIn, and PayPal gave me deep expertise in B2B SaaS, fintech, and scaling teams and products, all while staying ahead of emerging technology trends like AI. Whether you’re aiming for a promotion, navigating a career change, or preparing your team for an AI-powered future, I’ll partner with you to unlock your full potential and thrive in a rapidly evolving world of work.

I coach in AI careers at the intersection of recruiting, product, and emerging technology, drawing on years of building hiring systems, advising founders, and experimenting hands‑on with tools like GPT, Web3 platforms, and automation. I’ve sat on both sides of the table—designing roles, sourcing and evaluating talent, and positioning candidates—so I understand what hiring teams actually look for and how quickly the AI landscape is shifting. My approach is practical and outcomes‑driven: we translate your background into credible AI‑relevant value, define a clear target market (roles, companies, and ecosystems), and build a repeatable system for outreach, interviewing, and portfolio building. Whether you’re pivoting into AI from another field or trying to level up within the space, I focus on strategy, messaging, and execution so you’re not just “AI‑curious,” but genuinely competitive in a crowded market.
