Coaching software engineers is a major part of my day-to-day job. I've worked with dozens of engineers across varying experience levels with different goals and personalities. I am especially proficient in and passionate about helping people to set challenging goals and follow through on them. I have studied goal setting frameworks, and I have changed how my entire department utilizes goal setting for better efficacy. I've helped high performers to continue to grow and achieve great things, and I've helped struggling engineers to turn their performance around and get on the fast track to multiple promotions. I've also coached people who have made little progress. The largest part of your success will still depend on you.

I have over 10 years of experience spanning startups, strategy consulting, and talent development. I began my career in business development at high-growth startups in New York before joining Bain & Company as a consultant, leading work across private equity, healthcare, and tech. Along the way, I discovered that coaching clients and mentoring junior colleagues was the most energizing part of my work — which led me to transition into Talent Development at Bain. Most recently, I led Bain New York's Associate Consultant Program, overseeing the development and advising of early-career consultants through their first years at the firm. I was also deeply involved in recruiting as an anchor interviewer and internship program lead, giving me a keen understanding of what it takes to break into and thrive in competitive environments. I hold a BA in Psychology from Northwestern University and an MBA from Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management. I am passionate about helping early-career professionals get clear on what truly fulfills them — not just in their careers, but across all dimensions of their lives. Whether you're navigating your current role, exploring a transition, or simply asking bigger questions about what makes you happy, I use structured reflection, mindfulness, and analytical frameworks to help you find greater joy, connection, and fulfillment in your life.

Have you even been in a place where you are presented an opportunity (with a great compensation) but are super confused on what to do. Whether you're breaking into a new field or seeking career pivot / advancement, the most important thing is to identify vital opportunities that align with you goals. That's not easy as that involves saying NO to many good opportunities to select the one that is right for you. I have pivoted my career multiple times from software & data engineering to Product Management and then into Operations and all along have picked up skills to say YES to what aligns with my goals and ignore the noise. I have also tried my hands at entrepreneurship and made a transition back to corporate job. Through proven frameworks I can guide you to discern what's the right move for you amongst the myriad of choices. I offer practical, personalized & no B.S. advise to help you succeed. Together, we can build confidence, refine technical / soft skills and your personal brand & career narrative to stand out in today’s competitive job market. I look forward to the opportunity to work together!

Hi! I'm Amelia. I'm extremely passionate about helping young career folks and recent grads navigate their time out of college. It is an incredibly important stage that has the potential to set you up for massive success later on, but it's important to approach it strategically. I'd love to help you navigate the decisions you'll face, create buy-in with more senior leaders, communicate effectively, demonstrate your value, and more. In my first full-time job out of college, I was promoted 4x in 2 years, ran a 5+ person team within 1 year of graduating, and began work as an independent consultant for startups and VCs. I have been blessed with exceptional mentors and leaders to learn from and would love to pay it forward. Reach out if you think we might be a good fit.

As a people leader for the last 18+ years, I have had the opportunity to coach, mentor and sponsor numerous high-potential people within and outside of my organization. I have also built mentorship programs that have focused on career development and mobility. I enjoyed providing feedback and sharing my experience to transform the careers or those around me. In my leadership roles, I have interviewed over 100 people and can share some of the ways to build your professional brand and stand out from the competition. I am also a frequent guest speaker at Fordham University, speaking to MBA students about professional brand and networking strategies. I have experience in Sales, Business Development, Marketing.

My coaching comes from the trenches. As a founder and recovering burnt-out overachiever, I deeply understand the challenges you face as you build your company and yourself.
