About Ethan
Hi! My name is Ethan, and I have been working in tech finance for over 10 years after graduating college in 2015. I've worked across all sectors and sizes of the tech industry - from being employee #100 at Tinder, to joining a late stage tech company with a massive finance team at DoorDash. I have gone through the interview process at major tech companies several times, with multiple successful rounds of offers, and I want to share that knowledge with candidates hoping to break into the industry. I've also successfully navigated pivoting from traditional corporate finance roles to strategic finance, and I know exactly what skills you need to make this type of move.
Why do I coach?
One of my biggest passions in life is helping people figure out and pursue their purpose. I love identifying what makes each and every person unique, and helping them leverage that and turn it into their superpower. I hosted a podcast focused on this exact topic for over a year, and I am uniquely qualified to help you get where you want to go in life. I'd love to meet you and help you figure out your next step!
