My diverse experience shows that there a variety of interesting job paths you can take as an accountant, and I would love to help you learn what careers are out there and how you can successfully pivot.

I'm a CPA with a background that blends Big 4 public accounting, technical advisory, and in-house leadership—so I’ve seen the accounting and finance function from every angle. Most of my experience is in life sciences and tech start-ups, where I’ve helped companies navigate everything from complex GAAP issues to IPO prep and audit readiness. I’ve worked on revenue recognition (ASC 606), stock comp (ASC 718), lease accounting, clinical trial accruals, convertible instruments, and all the other technical areas that tend to trip people up. I’ve also spent a lot of time building out finance processes from the ground up—streamlining close timelines, standing up internal controls, supporting audits, and helping leadership make decisions based on clean, accurate data. Whether it’s working directly with auditors, guiding a team through their first 10-K, or mentoring someone stepping into their first controller role, I really enjoy helping others feel confident in their accounting and finance chops. I’d be a solid coach for anyone navigating complex accounting questions, trying to clean up their books, or getting ready to scale.

For professionals exploring or advancing in accounting, reporting, or finance roles. Accounting and finance roles demand technical competence — but also the ability to explain complexity clearly, connect across teams, and lead with precision. Having led large finance and accounting transformations and coached professionals through all stages of their careers, I help you understand what hiring managers look for, how to communicate your strengths, and how to turn technical skill into professional opportunity. Whether you’re entering the field, aiming for your next step, or pivoting from another discipline, we’ll build a clear plan that fits your goals and experience.

The accounting profession attracts brilliant, analytical minds who often struggle with the "soft skills" that determine career advancement—things like self-advocacy, communication, and navigating office politics. Having spent three decades in corporate accounting environments and working with professionals at every level, I've seen how technical excellence alone isn't enough to create the career satisfaction and advancement you deserve. Many accountants, especially those who are neurodivergent or introverted, need support in finding their professional voice and learning to articulate their value. I help accounting professionals develop the confidence, communication skills, and strategic thinking needed to advance their careers on their own terms. From learning to speak up in meetings and negotiate for promotions, to building leadership skills and exploring entrepreneurial opportunities, I provide the guidance that helps you leverage your analytical strengths while developing the interpersonal skills that create lasting career success.

I have been working in the accounting profession for the past 25 years. Starting with roles like Account Payable processor, staff accountant and General Accounting lead. I have spent the last 15 years working at Deloitte. Where I advanced from a senior consultant to Senior Manager. Throughout my career at Deloitte I have worked with clients in multiple industries to improve their Financial reporting, financial analysis, internal audits, implementation of new accounting standards and development of internal controls. I am passionate about the accounting profession and developing future leaders

I can offer a unique perspective, starting in Accounting, then moving to technical pre-sales, to management consulting, to Amazon PM, and to now managing $70M in ARR, to interviewees looking to break into PM and consulting from the outside. I have also worked in AI/ML, mobile and web products, and across various industries (B2B, B2C, e-commerce, fintech, to name a few). Aside from my qualifications, I get a ton of joy in following up with my mentees to see them crack the interviews at FAANG/consulting, and to help set a better course for their careers and lives. We grow by giving back.
