About

I’m a second-time immigrant, a founder, and a mom to two little girls — and I’m passionate about helping the next generation of entrepreneurs and immigrants unlock the opportunities the U.S. has to offer. With a technical background in Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, I spent nearly a decade at Microsoft, growing from engineer to product leader on billion-dollar businesses. Since then, I’ve built and scaled a global marketplace from the ground up, raised venture funding, and navigated the highs and lows of entrepreneurship firsthand. Now I want to share that hard-earned experience — from breaking into tech as an immigrant, to leading product at scale, to fundraising and building a company — so you can accelerate your journey, avoid common pitfalls, and become the best version of yourself.

Liza’s MBA Qualifications

I applied to and completed the Stanford MSx program as a mid-career, international applicant, so I know firsthand what it takes to make the case for a one-year program built for experienced leaders. I'm a second-time immigrant and former IDF intelligence officer. I studied EE & CS at Tel Aviv University, then spent nearly a decade at Microsoft, growing from software engineer to Senior Manager of Product. After Stanford I co-founded Gable, where I'm CEO and have raised venture funding. I work best with experienced engineers, product leaders and founders, especially international applicants, who are weighing Stanford MSx, an Executive MBA or a full-time MBA. I help you choose the right program and timing, turn a long, non-linear career into a clear "why now" story, choose and brief recommenders when you're the most senior person in the room, and prepare for interviews. Book a free 15-minute intro call and we'll figure out which path fits you.
