Before business school I worked as a marketing engineer at Texas Instruments (yes, the calculator company) in a role that was a liaison between our sellers in the field and engineers at corporate. It was a great job but I knew I wanted to learn more about business through an MBA. I quickly realized telling my story and background was tricky for a business setting because of how “non traditional” it was. Thus began my hate-affair with the phrase “non traditional”. I loved my time in business school and the opportunities it opened up for me. Helping people pursue a similar experience is a passion of mine and I love translating their story into a business setting. After graduating HBS, I received a full-time offer from my internship in Strategy and Operations at Google. During my time at Google, I have helped Google Cloud scale with the growing industry. I have also worked part time in our internal incubator, Area120, on an AI-integrated home fitness platform startup where I was the second business hire. It has been great to be able to get the large company as well as the startup experience while working at the same place. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and dogs, scuba diving, teaching fitness classes, and watching college football. ***Heads up!*** I will be taking maternity leave starting late November so I won’t be accepting round 2 MBA admission clients this year.

I graduated Harvard Business School in 2018 and one of the favorite parts of school was serving as an admissions representative and helping prospective students navigate the admissions process. I am passionate and excited to help clients pursue their business degree in the way and place that best fits their needs.

I believe anyone and everyone regardless of your background has something to contribute to and can benefit from a business education. Thinking through what that could look like for clients and sharing what I’ve learned from my research and experience is why I coach in my spare time. After graduating HBS, I received a full time off from my internship in strategy and operations at Google and now work in the office of the CTO at Verily. During my time at Google, I helped Google Cloud scale with the growing industry and also worked part time in our internal incubator, Area120, on an AI integrated home fitness platform startup and now do chief of staff/strat ops functions for Verily's tech org.
