Career Coaching

Welcome to my profile! With over two decades of experience in talent acquisition and leadership roles at top companies like Cisco, UKG, and Ulta Beauty, I bring a wealth of knowledge to career development coaching. As the Principal and Coach at Root & Rise LLC, I specialize in helping individuals and organizations achieve clarity, alignment, and sustainable success. I've successfully coached team members and clients throughout my career, guiding them to rise with purpose and reach their career goals. Whether you're looking to refine your job search strategy, enhance your leadership skills, or navigate career transitions, I'm here to provide grounded guidance and support. Let's connect and chart a path to your professional growth!

As a former litigation paralegal for 3 years at a top NY law firm, I've worked with many college graduates to prepare their applications and interview for similar positions. I also took part in the interviewing process for paralegals at my firm. My time as a paralegal was a formative experience in my legal journey, and I'm excited to help you take that step!

I help PhDs in STEM fields transform their doctorate into a career superpower beyond academia. I hold a Doctorate in Physics from MIT and have worked with PhDs in academia and industry for over 12 years. I have succeeded in roles in C-level leadership, research, teaching, data analytics, program management, relationships management, product management, marketing, and customer service. I have learned first hand as well as from others how a PhD can accelerate a career in all of these areas. Whether you're ready to embark on a new adventure or use your analytical and technical skills to turbocharge your current trajectory, I will work with you to create an actionable roadmap to where you want to go. I only work with clients who are willing to dare greatly in pursuit of their goals and dreams. Among other things, I have helped clients: - Move continents for a new career - Transition to a new field - Effectively interact with C-level leadership - Build their own business

I specialize in helping professionals navigate high-stakes career transitions, pivot into tech from non-traditional backgrounds, and position themselves for long-term career growth. My own path began in Civil Engineering, managing physical infrastructure projects, before I successfully transitioned into tech product management and scaled through roles at CrossInstall, Chartboost, Twitter, and Yelp. Having made an ambitious industry pivot myself, I understand the exact hurdles candidates face when translating real-world experience into tech-oriented value. I help clients cut through job search noise by refining their professional narrative, sharpening resume and LinkedIn positioning, and building clear strategies for applications & interview prep. Whether you are switching industries, targeting a major step up, or looking for practical guidance from someone who has sat on both sides of the hiring table, I provide actionable, candid advice to help you reach your goals.

I've learned from my own experiences building a values-aligned career through a series of twist and turns. I've also been a people manager for the last 8 years helping my mentees figure out what matters to them and how to leap forward with confidence.

My path to career coaching runs through two decades of working inside the kinds of institutions and decisions my clients are navigating. Corporate law at Jones Day came first, focusing on cross-border M&A and Sovereign Wealth transactions and the high-stakes pressure that comes with them. From there, the work expanded into energy and higher education leadership at Johns Hopkins University, and eventually into designing training programs and instructional materials now used by more than one million professionals across major organizations. The rooms where difficult career decisions get made are familiar territory. So is the experience of making several hard ones. A graduate of Columbia Law School and Harvard University, where I majored in Biology, I am a Certified Life Coach, NLP Master Practitioner, and Positive Intelligence® trained coach, currently working toward my ICF PCC credentials. The methodologies behind the work are grounded in decision-pattern analysis and mental fitness, which means sessions go beyond advice and strategy. The goal is building the internal capacity to make decisions clearly and follow through on them.

I'm Kerin (Keh-rin), and I’m passionate about helping people unlock their potential, drawing on my experience as a leader who has developed marketing strategies, partnerships, and operations at Fortune 50 companies. I specialize in using powerful questioning and insight to facilitate the discovery of your own solutions and making actionable goals, building systems for accountability, and integrating new learnings.
