Hi there, I'm Kate 👋 I’m someone who is empathetic, genuine, and loves hearing about individual backgrounds and stories. I grew up in the Midwest where my work ethic was primarily shaped by my parents. Thanks to my kind mentors, alumni network, and ambitious peers, I gained experience through supply chain internships, study abroad programs, and undergraduate clubs before landing full-time offers. Now that I'm on the other side, I really love helping others figure out their goals, navigate a career pivot, craft their story, and sharpen their interview skills + resume. As your coach, I’m someone who will not only provide actionable feedback, but also advise with empathy and honesty. I provide tailored job search, interview preparation strategies, and actionable feedback to help you nail the interview process. I’ve successfully coached 50+ clients of diverse backgrounds to land jobs across marketing, consulting, and product management. Outside of work, I enjoy skiing, hiking, photography, being a foodie, pilates, and thrifting. I also volunteer as a Peer Counselor for Empower Work - an anonymous text line that provides support and coaching for historically marginalized workers experiencing challenges in the workplace. Thanks for stopping by - excited to connect with you!

Kate also coaches for Management Consulting and College. View all.

Experience level: Product Manager

70+ people coached for Product Management

Kate has helped clients get into these companies:

After a few years of consulting at Accenture, I went all in on resources and learning about product, to then pivot to PM at Capital One. There are a lot of parallels between consulting and product management - stakeholder management, business analysis, and problem-solving. I want to help you break into product management and prepare you for the different types of interviews: product skills, product design, business analysis cases, and behavioral fit. I'm helped clients land offers at companies such as Asana and Capital One. Whether you're early or mid-career, technical or non-technical, I'd be happy to chat through how your experiences translate over to the product space and what additional skills are needed.

Why do I coach?

Landing a school acceptance, internship, or full-time role is an absolute rollercoaster. When I was first applying to colleges, I didn't have an an immediate, go-to mentor since my parents hadn't navigated the university application space within the U.S. During my time at UW-Madison, I was lucky enough to find peers and alumni to help me navigate recruitment for internships and full-time, improve my case interview skills, succeed in interviews, and transition out of consulting and into product management. I'd love to pay it forward - I am energized when mentoring, learning about your experience and perspective, and helping you achieve your goals. **If you're a currently enrolled student, please mention this when reaching out to receive discounted pricing.
