I Help Cautious People Leap and Impulsive People Land | MBA, Tech, Strategy

I help cautious people leap and impulsive people land. That means I work with people navigating high-stakes decisions — negotiating compensation, applying to MBA programs, pivoting careers, or figuring out how parenthood changes the professional math. The common thread: you're smart enough to see all the complexity, and that's exactly what's making it hard to move. I'm warm and I'm direct, and I'll ask the question you've been circling around. My job isn't to hand you a script. It's to help you think clearly enough to trust your own judgment when it counts. Why me: At Berkeley Haas, I was selected as a Graduate Student Instructor for Negotiations based on exemplary performance — coaching, grading, and mentoring students through one of the most competitive courses in the MBA curriculum. I also facilitated Dialogues on Race and completed Power & Politics and Interpersonal Dynamics ("Touchy Feely"), the course co-taught with Stanford on feedback, conflict, and the conversations most people avoid. Four courses in how humans influence, navigate difference, and build trust — and I've been on both sides of the classroom. As VP of Admissions for the Haas MBA student association, I reviewed applications and helped candidates tell stories that were actually theirs. I know what gets someone in and what doesn't. Professionally, I spent a decade in tech strategy at LinkedIn and Salesforce, making complex cross-functional initiatives land. Before that, I was a Teach For America corps member, where I learned that good coaching meets people where they are. I'm a visual thinker, a former teacher, and I'm deeply interested in what stays human in an increasingly tech-driven world — the ability to negotiate, read a room, and have a hard conversation with grace. Those aren't soft skills. They're the skills that compound. Whether you're looking to advance in your current role or pivot to a new career path, I'm here to help you navigate the complexities of career development. Let's work together to achieve your professional goals!
