I want to make it easier and more predictable for others to figure out the strategies needed to get into "elite" institutions like the ones I attended - I had to stumble across these strategies myself, and want to take the guesswork out of the process for others! Most importantly: I'm passionate about helping folks figure out their unique Why - so that they can create a career rocket ship, and craft a compelling narrative for it. (This also involves reframing self-limiting beliefs that have kept you feeling stuck or overwhelmed.) I've worked with tons of clients on both sides of the coin - both those trying to get into the worlds I navigated, and those trying to rediscover a cohesive sense of self and tailored plan for growth, after years or even decades in the corporate world.

I help ambitious professionals take control of their careers—whether they’re breaking into tech, pivoting to product management, or leveling up in their current role. My own path has been anything but traditional: I went from studying liberal arts to landing a role in M&A investment banking, then transitioned into product management at LinkedIn and Meta. Along the way, I’ve mastered the art of navigating career shifts, acing interviews, and crafting bold, strategic moves in highly competitive industries. I coach people through career visioning, job search and promotion strategy, networking that actually opens doors, and interview prep that helps you show up with clarity and confidence. Whether you’re switching paths or pushing for that next big step, I bring both experience and insight from inside the rooms where decisions get made.
