About Navin
I’m passionate about coaching the next generation of healthcare and business leaders as they explore what’s next—whether that means breaking into consulting, transitioning from academia to industry, or crafting a hybrid clinical-business career. Together, we will explore your world of opportunities, shape your story, get you ready to ace your interviews, and level up in your career. I studied biomedical engineering at Vanderbilt, and went on to earn my MD from the University of Miami where I also excelled as an academic researcher with a focus on biostatistics. I took a two-year hiatus from medical school to work at McKinsey’s New York office as a consultant, advising pharmaceutical companies, healthcare data companies, and large health systems on strategic and operational challenges. Today, I’m a radiation oncology resident physician at the University of Miami and a freelance consultant, successfully blending both the clinical and business worlds. Having navigated both the clinical and corporate worlds myself, I love helping others with similar backgrounds find clarity and fulfillment as they take the next step in their careers. My services include career opportunity exploration, resume & cover letter review, as well as behavioral and case interview prep. I'm well-versed in career paths across consulting, healthcare AI, healthcare investing, biopharma, and clinical medicine. Please reach out if you'd like to work together!
