Career Pivot & Interview Coach | Former Kirkland M&A Attorney | Wharton MBA

Over the past eight years, I’ve coached more than 60 professionals through high-stakes career transitions across law, finance, and private equity. My own path, from a top-10% graduate of Howard University School of Law to M&A attorney at Paul, Weiss and Kirkland & Ellis, and now a middle-market private equity fund while earning my MBA at Wharton, gives me a unique perspective on navigating elite recruiting and ambitious pivots. I specialize in helping clients clarify career goals, tell a compelling story, and secure offers in competitive industries. From resume and LinkedIn optimization to networking strategy, interview prep, and offer negotiation, my coaching blends insider knowledge of Big Law and high finance with a structured, data-driven approach. Whether you’re seeking your first post-graduate role, planning a major industry switch, or aiming for leadership positions, I provide actionable guidance and proven tactics to help you achieve the next stage of your career.
