About Jason
As a first-generation Taiwanese-American, I was never taught how to navigate the corporate ladder, know the best ways to "recruit", or what type of experiences to gain. I was always taught that hard work and a good attitude will get you far, but the world is much more nuanced nowadays. As someone that didn't come from the ideal background, I only had the chance to go to a state school and learn it by myself. Even though I was able to come from a non-traditional background, I was able to pivot into strategy consulting (into a pipeline that was only meant for campus recruiting), strategy consulting to tech, and now I have a strategy & operations role in big tech where I am at the same level as post-grad MBAs, which I don't have. I've had experience: - making a pivot from a completely unrelated field to another - transferring internally to a different, more competitive function where they didn't typically take people "from my practice area" - going from consulting to big tech - navigating a layoff 10 months into a role and bouncing back by controlling the narrative I shared externally If you're struggling at any part of your career or are struggling to get to the next step, I'm 99% sure that I can help you and guide you in the right direction. I'd love to learn about your story and how I can help!
Why do I coach?
As someone that's coached 600+ clients in the past 5 years, it feels great to be able to help someone be able to achieve their goals. I feel like there's a lot of noise nowadays around "what to do", "how to optimize your background", "hacks", etc. and as a coach, one of my biggest roles is to break through that noise for you. I coach because I'm good at coaching and it's very fulfilling to be able to help others. People helped me throughout my career and gave me great advice, but that came through hundreds of coffee chats. I hope that with my help, you don't need to do as much work as I did to get the same results. It's about helping others up the ladder, not pulling it from above when you've reached your goals.
