Career Coaching, Events, and Resources

Experienced CFO, investor, and entrepreneurial leader with a track record of success as a venture investor, business builder, fund-raiser and finance executive. While I continue to invest in venture capital, I developed my coaching practice in 2020 and since then have helped dozens of executives and entrepreneurs upskill, raise capital, find new opportunities, and excel in the new positions. I have done this work across industries, but most of my clients are entrepreneurs in tech/biotech, investment professionals in private equity/venture capital, or in real estate. I started my career as an investment banker at Morgan Stanley and Smith Barney (now Citi) before getting my MBA at Harvard Business School. I spent several years in private equity and venture capital at Warburg Pincus before moving into public equity investing at hedge funds, including my own for several years. Most recently I pivoted back to venture capital with a new firm, 3Spoke Capital, and spent two years as the CFO of a new AI/medtech venture, PreciseDx, for which I raised over $20MM in a Series B. All the while I was active in the recruitment, training, and management of high performance teams. I know how to build great teams, help you find a role within them, and crush the new job once you secure it.

With a robust background in leadership and strategic planning, I bring a wealth of experience to career development coaching. As a former Chief of Staff at Abiomed during its $16.6B acquisition by Johnson & Johnson, and now as Director of Supply Chain, I have honed my skills in navigating complex corporate landscapes. My teaching experience at the United States Military Academy, coupled with an MBA from MIT Sloan, equips me to guide professionals in achieving their career aspirations. Whether you're looking to transition industries or climb the corporate ladder, I'm here to help you strategize and succeed. Let's connect and chart your path to success!

Over the last decade, I’ve coached high-performing professionals through some of the most important inflection points in their careers—navigating career pivots, rising into leadership roles, re-entering the workforce, and building confidence to take bold next steps. My clients span industries including tech, marketing, finance, and nonprofit, and many have successfully transitioned into roles they once thought were out of reach. What sets me apart is my ability to quickly understand your unique strengths, clarify what you want (and why), and help you map a path forward that’s both strategic and personally fulfilling. I bring a blend of practical insight, deep listening, and honest accountability that helps clients not only land their next opportunity—but do it in a way that aligns with who they are and what they truly want.

As someone who has reimagined my own career several times, I would love to guide you on your journey! I am an ICF certified coach with over two decades of experience in talent development and career coaching. I started my career in engineering and product roles, but have spent most of my 20+ years working in talent development at large multinational companies. Today, as a Coach and Co-Founder of Together We, I help people at transition points feel less alone and more confident. One of the transition points I specialize in is career changes. What we do as a career has a big impact on our lives - we spend a lot of our time at work and your chosen career has the potential to bring you meaning and fulfillment. However, feeling like you’re in the wrong career or not knowing what the next step is can be stressful and making changes can often feel like too big a hurdle. I work with a broad range of clients - some who want to advance in a particular field and others wanting to make a more drastic career change. I also love working with clients who have taken a step back from their careers (perhaps after becoming a parent or another life circumstance), and are now ready to make that next move. I am committed to providing you with practical tools and techniques to increase feelings of empowerment and ownership around your career development. Topics I typically cover with clients include: identifying and working with personal values, understanding strengths and how to best leverage them, networking (even for those who hate the idea of networking!), and dealing with imposter syndrome to name a few. Work with me to gain clarity and to build confidence in the next steps in your career!
