Career Coaching, Events, and Resources

I’m a career strategist and coach with over 20 years of international, cross-industry business experience, but at my core, I’m most passionate about helping people find clarity, confidence, and purpose in their careers. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of coaching professionals at UCLA Anderson’s Executive MBA Program, USC Marshall’s IBEAR MBA Program, and through my own practice, CareerQwest. Each client’s journey has taught me something new about resilience, ambition, and the power of intentional career choices. My own background spans consulting, corporate strategy, technology, and entrepreneurship across the U.S., Europe, and Asia. This variety allows me to understand and relate to clients from many different industries, functions, and stages of life. I combine that perspective with evidence-based coaching and a practical, results-focused approach to ensure our work together is both supportive and impactful. I see coaching as a partnership. Together, we’ll define what success looks like for you, set clear goals, and work step by step toward roles and opportunities that align with your vision for the future. My role is to challenge, guide, and encourage you, and to make sure you never feel like you’re navigating the journey alone. My coaching process is structured yet highly personalized, guiding you through every stage of career advancement... from defining your goals, to landing interviews, to negotiating the offer that truly reflects your value.

My career has covered a lot of ground fast. In the past three years I've worked across a non-profit, a tech startup, a fine art gallery, a water engineering firm, and a solar energy company, and before that I interned in the US Senate. Each transition was intentional, and each one taught me something different about how to get in the door without a traditional background for the role. I know what it takes to tell a story across industries, write a resume that doesn't look like a copy-paste job, and approach outreach in a way that actually gets responses. I've done this enough times that I can spot what's not working quickly and help you fix it.

I’m a finance professional with close to 10 years of experience across investment banking, structured finance and private credit, currently working as an Executive Director in Private Credit at Goldman Sachs Asset Management. Before GSAM, I spent several years at Société Générale CIB in Paris and Milan, advising and financing institutional investors, private equity funds and financial sponsors on complex credit transactions. I’m passionate about helping ambitious students and young professionals understand what finance really looks like from the inside — the skills that matter, how deals work, how to tell a strong story, and how to prepare effectively for competitive roles. I can help with CVs, LinkedIn positioning, networking strategy, technical interview preparation, mock interviews and career transitions into investment banking, private credit, asset management and buy-side roles.

Are you a talented professional who needs help landing a new job? You are at the right place! My mission is to share job search strategies and recruitment insights to help talent like you succeed in landing your dream job. Before starting my coaching practice, I worked as a corporate recruiter in top tech companies and have learned the entire hiring cycle, from sourcing potential talents to offering jobs. This enabled me to transfer insightful knowledge to help current job seekers position themselves as the best candidates for their dream companies. As a Career Consultant, I have successfully coached 100+ clients with diverse backgrounds to navigate their job search and provide customized solutions to solve their problems.

Most career coaches can tell you what a good resume looks like. I can tell you what a hiring manager actually thinks when they read it — because I've sat on both sides of that table. I'm currently VP of Global Business Control at Hubexo, a global SaaS company, where I lead a team of 20 and report to the CFO. Before that, I was an Associate at McKinsey advising on strategy and transformation. Before that, I rotated across business control, commercial strategy, and M&A through Ericsson's Global Leadership Program, with stops at NREP and EY in real estate investment. My career has never moved in a straight line — and that's exactly what I coach people to navigate. What I bring that most coaches don't: I understand how competitive business roles are actually evaluated — not from the outside looking in, but from the room where decisions get made. I know what signals make someone look like leadership material versus someone who just has a good resume. And because I've made significant career pivots myself, I know how to help you frame transitions, identify what's genuinely transferable, and build a story that holds up under pressure. I work best with ambitious early-career professionals who want to move fast and think strategically about their trajectory — not just land the next role, but set up the five after it.

With a background in strategy/management consulting, as well as in international organizations and finance, I provide career coaching for your professional development based on my personal experience. I spent four years at Bain & Company, where I advised clients across various industries on growth and operations, developing my skills in leadership and team management. My journey continued at Oxford, where I completed a MBA from Said Business School and a Master in Public Policy from the Blavatnik School of Government, then with impactful roles at The Global Fund and the United Nations Advisory Alliance, where I led cross-functional projects and strategic finance initiatives. Whether you're looking to pivot from private sector to public sector, are considering your options after a few years into consulting or after completing your Master's degree, or are interested in an international career and working abroad, let's connect to strategize the next chapter of your career and tactical steps for a successful transition! Previously, I provided interview preparation for MBB consulting firms, so am happy to run case interviews or share advice for individuals pursuing careers in consulting.
