About Nadine
I graduated from Stanford GSB. I was a manager at McKinsey, an investor in NFX (VC) and a PM at Jet.com Currently the CEO of a VC-backed b2b platform; we raised $7M+ to date and our team is 35+ strong. I am equipped to help people from non traditional backgrounds. I am an Egyptian woman who didn't know anyone who worked in consulting or went to a top school before I did it myself.
Why do I coach?
I love coaching folks and helping them get to the opportunities they dream of. It is a way for me to give back, given that numerous people did the same to me to get here.
