Career Coaching, Events, and Resources

Welcome to my profile! I’m a strategic program manager and culture builder who’s all about helping people and teams do their best work. With experience in media, technology, and finance, I’ve led big projects, created career growth programs, and built workplaces where people feel valued and engaged. At The New York Times, I worked on major initiatives like the digital subscription launch and article recommendations—bringing people together, solving complex problems, and delivering real results. During my time at The New York Times, I made the shift from project management to talent management in HR. I found myself drawn to employee engagement and career development, which led me to coaching and people development. Now, as a Columbia-certified coach, I use behavioral research, proven methodologies, and deep listening to help individuals and organizations grow in meaningful ways. I’ve helped clients move forward in their careers, address obstacles to pursue personal and creative projects, and navigate career transitions with confidence. I tailor my approach to each person’s needs, ensuring you get the right support and strategies to reach your goals. If you’re looking to take the next step in your career or personal growth, I’d love to see how I can support your journey.

I’ve helped professionals at every stage of their careers—from new grads to seasoned leaders—gain clarity, navigate transitions, and build careers that feel meaningful and sustainable. Whether it's coaching clients through major pivots, personal branding, resume positioning, networking strategy, or launching their own ventures, I bring a mix of strategic insight, marketing savvy, and grounded support. Over the course of my career, I’ve guided countless individuals informally and formally—helping them articulate their value, reconnect with what matters most, and make bold moves with confidence. I’ve worked across industries, coached through burnout, identity shifts, entrepreneurship, and everything in between. Career growth isn’t just about the next job—it’s about crafting a path that actually fits you.

With seven years of experience as a manager, trader, and investor in high-stakes, front-office roles at Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan, I bring a unique blend of hands-on expertise and leadership insights. I was one of the youngest trading managers in Goldman Sachs' London office, and within two years, I was co-leading our team's trading book—a role that deepened my understanding of both markets and team dynamics. As a Vice President in the Principal Funding & Investment team at Goldman Sachs in London, I managed and developed talent, providing support and career mentorship to others formally and informally. I have been deeply involved in full-time and internship hiring (as a hiring manager), as well as Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiatives to support retention and encourage advocacy. If you are looking for support with navigating difficult interpersonal situations at work; or looking to navigate the transition to senior leadership and management roles, I would love to be a part of positioning you for success.

Experienced leader in healthcare administration. Spent four years as an Executive Director with the Ensign Group, the largest and most profitable long-term care company. Successfully grew census in each facility and helped with new acquisitions. Facility EBIT averaged 1.5 million and improved CMS star rating at each facility.

Since joining Cross Healthcare, have helped lead four new acquisitions that are all profitable and successful. Census has grown over 25% since acquisition and net income has improved from negative before acquisitions to successful facilities. I have experience in training executives in long-term care and helping them grow their career, be more efficient, free up their time and multiply those around them.
