Emily has helped clients get into these companies:
With deep experience in venture and growth investing at Dragoneer, I’ve spent years evaluating top-tier startups and collaborating with some of the best investors in the industry. I know what investment teams look for, in both companies and people. My coaching focuses on helping candidates tell their story in a way that resonates with partners, showcases genuine intellectual curiosity, and demonstrates the analytical rigor and conviction that great investors bring to the table. I’ve reviewed hundreds of resumes and interviewed dozens of candidates for investing roles, so I know exactly what differentiates a strong candidate from the rest. My approach blends strategic preparation with honest feedback, helping clients position themselves like insiders. Whether you’re coming from banking, consulting, or a nontraditional background, I’ll help you translate your experience into the language of venture and growth investing.

About Emily
I’m a former BCG consultant turned tech investor with a deep love for helping people navigate career crossroads. My background spans strategy, startups, and growth/venture. However, what energizes me most is working 1:1 with ambitious, thoughtful people to find clarity, craft unforgettable personal stories, and differentiate in meaningful ways. Whether you're pivoting industries, chasing purpose, or simply feeling stuck, I’m here to help you move forward with confidence and intention.
Why do I coach?
I started my career at BCG and currently work as a growth investor focused on technology. While I love the quantitative / analytical parts of my job, what excites me the most about coaching people in their careers isn't the numbers. It’s people. It’s storytelling. It’s the feeling of clarity you get when you finally understand where you want to go — and more importantly, how to get there. I’ve coached peers and rising stars through: - Pivots into new industries - High-stakes interviews at top firms - Personal rebrands when they feel “stuck” - Big career crossroads where logic and emotion are at war What I’ve learned? Everyone has a compelling story that can land them in their dream seat, whether or not they know what that is currently. Most people just need help unlocking it. I’m the right coach for you if you’re: - High-achieving, driven, but unsure what’s next - Trying to break into consulting, growth equity, VC, tech, or beyond - Preparing for interviews and want to nail your story - Thinking about leaving a “great on paper” job that isn’t fulfilling - Feeling stuck and want a sounding board that’s sharp, real, and nonjudgmental What we'll work on: - Career clarity – untangling the noise, identifying what actually matters - Personal narrative – crafting your “why,” your throughline, and your edge - Interview strategy – from behavioral answers to confidence on delivery - Differentiation – how to stand out in a sea of smart, qualified people
