About Ian

Hi! I'm founding a new company in the digital health space and finishing up my undergrad at Stanford studying Computer Science + Neuroscience. I took time off after my freshman year to join Otter (Sequoia-backed $23M Series A startup) as their 1st Product Manager/Software Engineer and intern at Tesla/Poshmark. I've also previously worked at a $60M+ venture capital fund and medical technology accelerator. I have a non-traditional background relative to most Stanford students. I grew up in Minnesota where I attended a subpar public high school. I skipped about 1/3 of my days at school to work on other projects across healthcare and startups. I hadn't touched a line of code until I came to Stanford. Since then, I've built and launched several projects across AI, wearables, and digital health. I've helped several previous clients get into Stanford/dream school, figure out what they actually want to do with their time in college, land top PM roles, join early stage startups, and raise venture capital rounds. I can help you: - Accomplish "X" down a non-traditional path ("X" could be getting into your dream school, securing a job, or anything in between) - Start working on projects to explore your interests - Create a Linkedin and overall public presence that aligns with your goals (career, school, etc.) - Prepare for Product Manager interviews - Outline a recruiting plan for your ideal job - Figure out what you want out of your time in school and post grad

Why do I coach?

My mentor from high school had a profound impact on my life's trajectory ever since I met him. I initially thought I wanted to go deep into finance/consulting, but he opened me to the tech and startup sphere which helped me get into Stanford and now working on a new company in the digital health space. Hoping to pass on my learnings to others (:
