About Amie
Hi, I’m Amie! I’m passionate about helping others achieve their dreams and unlock their full potential. I’m currently a student at Harvard Law School, and before that, I spent three years at McKinsey & Company as a Senior Business Analyst, working with clients across industries to solve complex problems and create lasting impact. Whether it’s navigating career transitions, preparing for competitive applications, or building confidence in your next big step, I love sharing what I’ve learned to help others succeed.
Why do I coach?
As a first-generation law student and corporate professional, I leaned on my friends and network to help me navigate moments of uncertainty — from applying to competitive programs, to landing my role at McKinsey, to getting into Harvard Law School. Those conversations gave me confidence, clarity, and the tools to succeed.
