About

I help ambitious people gain clarity, make smarter career decisions, and turn big goals into practical next steps. My background spans media, entertainment, technology, and business, with experience at Netflix, Universal, and Lionsgate, along with an MBA from Pepperdine and a background in education from UC San Diego. I’m especially strong in career strategy, personal branding, networking, interview preparation, navigating competitive industries, and helping people translate their experience into a compelling story. My style is practical, candid, and collaborative — the goal is to leave each conversation with greater clarity and a concrete plan forward.

Devin’s Career Coaching Qualifications

Experience level: Associate

100+ Career Coaching clients

I bring 6+ years of experience across media, entertainment, and technology, with a career spanning Netflix, Universal Pictures, and Lionsgate, as well as professional experience in both the U.S. and Europe. I hold an MBA from Pepperdine University and a B.A. from UC San Diego, and I’ve personally navigated competitive recruiting, career transitions, international moves, and the path from early-career roles into major global companies. As a coach, I help clients clarify their direction, strengthen their résumé and LinkedIn positioning, prepare for interviews, build effective networking strategies, and better understand how to break into competitive industries such as entertainment, media, and adjacent business roles. I’m especially well suited to students and young professionals who want practical, candid guidance on building a career in the U.S. or navigating an international career path.

Why do I coach?

Some of the most important opportunities in my own career came from people who took the time to give me perspective, challenge my thinking, and help me see possibilities I hadn’t considered. I’ve always enjoyed doing the same for others. At Lionsgate and Universal, I helped lead early-career communities focused on mentorship, professional development, and helping people navigate the beginning of their careers. I also studied education at UC San Diego, so coaching and mentorship have been a consistent thread throughout my professional life. I coach because I genuinely enjoy helping ambitious people gain clarity, build confidence in their decisions, and create a realistic path from where they are now to where they want to go.
