Hello and welcome to my profile! With a robust background in business strategy and operations, I bring a wealth of experience from my time at McKinsey & Company, where I served as an Engagement Manager leading teams in advising PE firms and consumer/retail and high tech/SaaS companies.

I’m a former VC where I evaluated hundreds of founders, reviewed pitch decks, built investment theses, and led diligence for both private and public investments. I later became the CEO and founder of a venture-backed startup funded by Silicon Valley and Singapore-based VCs, giving me firsthand experience building strategy, GTM plans, and fundraising materials from the founder side. My background includes 20 years in strategy, finance, and operations across roles at Catcha Group (Southeast Asia’s leading venture builder) and the Clermont Group (private equity). I specialize in helping early-stage companies clarify their business model, craft investor-ready narratives, and structure compelling pitch decks and strategic plans. Whether you need to refine your fundraising story, tighten your strategy, or build a clear and persuasive pitch, I bring the perspective of both an investor and a founder to help you communicate your value and accelerate your growth.

I help leadership teams make hard tradeoffs—across strategy, growth priorities, and operating models—so the organization stops spreading resources thin and starts executing what actually matters. As a senior executive with experience leading strategic workforce planning, organizational design, and enterprise transformation inside complex, growth-focused organizations, I’ve worked at the intersection of strategy and execution. I understand how quickly priorities multiply, complexity compounds, and performance suffers when focus erodes. Today, I partner with executive teams and scaling companies to clarify growth priorities, streamline operating rhythms, and align structure, talent, and metrics to drive results. The work centers on improving decision velocity, eliminating operational friction, and ensuring the organization is built to deliver—not just plan. The outcome: sharper execution, stronger performance, and leadership teams aligned around what moves the business forward.

I have 10 years of experience in strategy roles across consulting, product management, and strategy & ops. I’ve worked at companies like BCG, Amazon, and now Uber, and hold an MBA from Wharton. I’m excited to help others on their journey -- whether that’s breaking into strategy & ops or consulting, or serving as a strategic advisor to leaders navigating complex challenges.

MBA from Chicago Booth. I've spent my career at the intersection of strategy and operations — leading GTM strategy at Yext, driving Rokt's $325M Series E to a ~$2B valuation, and running cross-functional strategy and ops as Chief of Staff at Flex. Currently heading up GTM Operations at TLDR Media, where I own revenue operations, pricing strategy, and commercial systems end-to-end. I've sat on the Chicago Booth Admissions Committee, so I understand what top programs are screening for — and how to position yourself credibly. If you're navigating an MBA application, a pivot into strategy or ops, or trying to sharpen how you think about business problems, I can help you think it through clearly and practically.
