About Kimberly
Hi! I help undergraduate and graduate students navigate the competitive landscape of admissions and business careers. My own career spans roles at Google, Deloitte, Accenture Strategy, and BCG. I hold an MBA from the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan, a BA from UC Berkeley, and am an ICF-certified PCC coach, trained in the MBTI, CareerLeader, and CliftonStrengths assessments. Having lived and worked in multiple countries (US, Singapore, India, Poland, Argentina, Saudi Arabia), I bring a global perspective to career exploration and job search strategies.
Why do I coach?
I coach to be the coach I wish I had! I never had a mentor, and as a result often found myself lost and without direction. I've learned a lot from my early career days at Google to my MBA to consulting, and I can't wait to guide you on your journey.
