About

As a Product Strategist at LinkedIn, I've supported transformative initiatives that leverage data-driven strategies and robust stakeholder collaboration to significantly boost revenue, product performance, and user engagement. Prior to that, I spent 3 years utilizing my data expertise and financial acumen to invest a $15 billion endowment into various private equity sectors. Over the past six years, I've channeled my expertise from these experiences into coaching professionals of all types — from early-career planning to technical interviewing—helping them achieve their top career goals. My clients have landed roles at top organizations such as McKinsey & Co., LinkedIn, DoorDash, and Google. Let's chat!

Win has helped clients get into these companies:

Most people have an app idea and no idea how to start. I fix that. I'm a Product Manager & Strategist at LinkedIn, and outside of work I do exactly what you're trying to do: I build and ship AI products on nights and weekends. My meal planning app NutriPlan AI reached 4,000+ organic users with 20% premium conversion, I run an autonomous AI agent that manages my job search, and my GPS walking game is live on TestFlight. All of it built solo with Claude Code, Cursor, and the modern AI stack. You don't need to be an engineer to do this. You need someone who has made every mistake already and can route you around them. The credentials behind the coaching: at LinkedIn I led a five person pod that took a GenAI recommendation product from zero to launch for 25 million users, and I co-defined an agentic AI roadmap with a $50M+ revenue target alongside executive leadership. I coach the way I build. We pick your idea, scope an honest MVP, choose the right tools for your skill level, and get a working product in front of real users. You leave every session with something that works, and you leave the engagement with something live.

Why do I coach?

I coach because it's a way to give back. I was a first generation college student coming from a family of small business owners, and therefore had no connections or help when it came to embarking on my career journey. I understand how difficult career progression can be when you don't have access to these resources, so I want to be able to share my own expertise with others to ease that burden.
