About Deena

After graduating from The University of Pennsylvania with a B.S in economics, I worked in Sales with IBM. and then with Verizon in Strategic Planning. Truly, a life-long learner, I went back to Penn to earn my master's in organizational development. As the Head of Talent for an internet start -up I learned how to quickly scale an organization and hire the right people for organizational (culture fit and skills) success. I've had decades of experience coaching at Director level up to the C Suite in a variety of industries including Tech, Finance, and Healthcare. I understand the challenges of both the for profit and non-profit worlds. A partial list of my clients includes: The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Optum Health. IBM Watson Health, Living Beyond Breast Cancer, Alliance Bernstein and SAP.

Why do I coach?

I coach because I see the potential in every person. I am competitive and what drives me is helping my clients' set goals, level up, and get what they want out of their careers, relationships and life.
