My experience spans across strategic positioning, market entry, and operational excellence, having worked with companies like Kindred Healthcare and Highmark Health. I am passionate about helping clients navigate complex business strategies and operations, leveraging my extensive background to drive success.

Hello and welcome! I am Parina Daswaney, and I'm passionate about helping ambitious individuals like you achieve their career goals. My unique background combines the rigor of corporate strategy and operations with the creativity of entrepreneurship. As an international student, I landed internships at Wayfair my sophomore year and Ralph Lauren my junior year, building a solid foundation in business strategy and operations. This hard work paid off when I secured a full-time position at Wayfair after graduating. I quickly rose through the ranks, eventually becoming a manager while also successfully navigating the complexities of obtaining a green card. Following Wayfair, I further honed my skills and experience in a fast-paced environment at DoorDash. Beyond my corporate experience, I've also gained invaluable insight into the world of venture capital by consulting for XRC Ventures and DSG Ventures and built up my own successful side hustle, Blog Beauty Boss and Dance With Parina. This varied experience has equipped me with the skills and knowledge necessary to help you navigate complex business landscapes and achieve your strategic goals. Whether you're working on refining your operational efficiency, building your business strategy, or developing your leadership skills, I can provide the tailored guidance to support your growth. Let's connect and explore how I can help you reach your full potential!

Pivoting between industries can feel impossible, especially trying to connect the experiences you have with what the hiring team thinks they need. This is especially hard when trying to pivot into strategy at a tech company, startup, or bank if you don’t have a traditional consulting background. Sometimes it can feel impossible to get through the front door when your skills may not sound like an apples-to-apples lateral move. I've personally experienced this when I made the jump from Equity Research at Morgan Stanley to Growth Strategy at Oscar Health and into Investment Banking Strategy at JPMorgan. My goal is to help navigate the muddy waters, advise on ways to speak about your experiences, help you shape your resumes and prep for interviews, and most importantly, position you for success in your new role. Learn how to pass case interviews from someone who successfully did so without any consulting experience.

I help ambitious operators and career switchers break into and level up within Business Operations and Strategy roles at top tech companies. I’m a hands-on operator with real experience driving GTM planning, forecasting, and executive decision-making in high-stakes, ambiguous environments. My coaching focuses on structured thinking, clear communication, and translating experience into compelling, interview-ready stories. I help clients break down complex problems, pressure-test their logic, and show up to interviews and senior conversations sounding confident, credible, and polished. Clients leave with sharper instincts, clearer positioning, and the confidence to operate at the next level — not by guessing, but by thinking like someone who already belongs in the room.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked closely with cross-functional teams to bring products and go-to-market strategies to life—from SMB-focused innovation at Endurance to global strategy at Microsoft. I help founders, operators, and aspiring PMMs think critically about business models, market positioning, stakeholder alignment, and decision-making under ambiguity. Whether you're scaling or refining, I’ll help you anchor your strategy to what really moves the needle.

I am a seasoned strategy and operations leader, with global experience at industry leading firms in tech (Google), financial services (Capital One), consulting (BCG), and mining (Anglo American). My experience as a hiring manager for strategy, analytics, and operations roles at Google and Capital One means I know what makes a great resume that lands you the interview, and how to prepare to ultimately land the job! I have hired directly for strategy and operations roles on my team, as well as parts of panels for other teams - interviewing candidates with a wide range of experiences. Additionally, I have been directly responsible for performance management of full-time employees and so have insight into what makes candidates successful in the job. I love navigating complex business challenges, and crafting and operationalizing strategy. I am also passionate about building teams to help them thrive. Excited to support your journey to be a part of one of those teams and to thrive! Let's connect!

My work focuses on how you think, decide, and communicate under pressure. Most leaders were promoted for performance. Few were trained to think clearly under pressure. That gap shows up in decisions, alignment, and execution. Not more analysis. Better judgment. Not more alignment meetings. Clear decisions that hold. In our work, we slow down the moment before action. We separate signal from noise. We name what others avoid. And we strengthen how you operate when the stakes are real. You see it in: - Faster, more confident decisions - Clearer communication in high-stakes conversations - Stronger alignment across teams - Execution that no longer needs to be chased I bring 25+ years of global leadership experience across Burberry, Tory Burch, Gap Inc., and PwC, combined with 6,000+ executive coaching sessions.
