Business Operations & Strategy Coaching, Events, and Resources

I'm currently a Product BizOps expert at LinkedIn. Before this, I worked as an endowment investor focused on growth equity and venture capital. My degrees are in Finance and Management from the McIntire School of Commerce at the University of Virginia. I've spent the last 5 years coaching across the spectrum from early-career planning to technical interviewing for Product/Business Operations/Strategy/Cases. My clients work in Product, Commercial Strategy, Consulting, Business Operations, and more at companies like Disney, LinkedIn, and Google.

With over 17 years of comprehensive HR leadership experience at Google, my background provides a unique 360-degree view of the entire career lifecycle, from managing early-career university outreach and intern conversion programs to leading recruiting of a large department. As a Senior People Consultant and HR Business Partner, I directly advise leaders, managers, and VPs on the very topics at the heart of coaching: career development, performance enablement, team effectiveness, and navigating organizational transitions. My expertise is further solidified by my formal education in Learning and Organization Change@Northwestern, and my direct responsibility for the training and mentorship of other HR managers, demonstrating a "coach-the-coach" level of mastery. Let's work together to help you chart a clear path to what matters to you most.

I previously worked at Faire, Grow Therapy, and Better.com on their Strategy and Biz Ops & Analytics teams prior to transitioning into Venture Capital. In addition to my professional experience, I have successfully navigated the competitive hiring processes of top-tier organizations, earning multiple offers across various industries including DoorDash and Nordstrom (Enterprise Strategy). As a coach, I’m here to help others refine their interviewing skills (behavioral, case, and technical / analytical), craft compelling resumes, and position themselves as standout candidates in a highly competitive job market. My goal is to provide actionable feedback and personalized strategies that empower you to achieve your career aspirations with confidence.

Welcome to my profile! With a robust background in corporate strategy, I currently serve as the Senior Director of Corporate Strategy at Ulta Beauty, where I lead strategic initiatives to drive business growth. My experience spans across top-tier consulting at Strategy&, where I specialized in consumer markets and managed teams to deliver impactful strategies for Fortune 500 clients. As a former Peer Coach at Michigan's Ross School of Business, I have a passion for mentoring and have guided numerous individuals in refining their business strategies and operations. Whether you're looking to enhance your strategic acumen or navigate complex business challenges, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's connect and chart a path to your career goals!

My background is in strategy and I've worked at companies like Accenture and Alterra Mountain Company (Ikon Pass, owner of Deer Valley, Steamboat Springs, etc.). At Accenture, I honed my skills in data and innovation strategy across diverse industries. Then, at Alterra, I focused on driving growth across our portfolio of ski resorts. Currently, as a Growth Launcher at Leland, I am focused on launching and growing new categories.

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.

With a robust background in strategic finance and corporate development at Gopuff, coupled with my experience as an Investment Banking Analyst at Barclays, I bring a wealth of knowledge in business strategy and operations. My journey through these roles has equipped me with the skills to help clients navigate complex business challenges and optimize their strategic initiatives. Currently pursuing my MBA at Harvard Business School, I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to guide others in achieving their career goals in the business world. Whether you're looking to break into strategy roles or need some help with your business, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's connect and chart a path to your success!

Hello and welcome to my profile! As a former Case Leas at McKinsey & Company, I honed my skills in strategic problem-solving and operational excellence. My journey continued at NFX as an Investment Officer, where I gained insights into venture capital and startup ecosystems. Currently, as the Co-founder & CEO of Torpedo Now (7M+ raise; 35+ team members), I lead a dynamic team in driving innovation and growth.

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.
