Career Coaching

I’ve spent my career working at the intersection of operators, founders, and investors, which gives me a different lens on how careers actually evolve. Today, I’m a Managing Director and General Manager at Exit Consulting Group, advising founder-led businesses on growth, positioning, and M&A. Prior to that, I helped build and scale companies within AAA’s venture studio, and earlier in my career I worked in private equity, acquisitions, and consulting. I’ve seen how hiring, promotion, and compensation decisions get made from both the operator and investor side. Most of the people I work with are not trying to fix a resume. They are trying to make better decisions. Whether it’s choosing between opportunities, repositioning for a more senior role, or thinking through a transition, I focus on helping you evaluate tradeoffs, understand how you are being perceived, and position yourself for long-term upside. My approach is grounded in real-world experience and pattern recognition across many different situations, not generic frameworks.
