Career Coaching & Resources

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.

My own journey from a first-generation Nigerian-American immigrant to working at firms like General Atlantic, Goldman Sachs, and Lead Edge Capital gives me deep insight into what it really takes to break into competitive industries. I specialize in helping people who feel like outsiders figure out how to get insider access to the careers they want, using practical strategies based on real data from hundreds of successful career transitions.
