I’m a product leader and executive coach who believes you can build an exceptional career without sacrificing your life. I spent years leading complex product initiatives across high-growth tech organizations, driving large-scale impact, aligning teams, and delivering meaningful business results. Along the way, I became fascinated by a deeper question: why do so many capable, high-performing people feel stuck or uncertain about their path? Today, I coach ambitious professionals — founders, operators, and emerging leaders — who want clarity, confidence, and intentional growth. My approach blends strategic career guidance with grounded leadership. As a yoga teacher with a consistent meditation practice, I bring calm, focus, and deep listening into my work. I coach from lived experience, helping clients grow their impact while building careers and lives that feel aligned and sustainable.
