Career Coaching, Events, and Resources

Career transitions are exciting, but they can also feel overwhelming and uncertain. I’ve navigated a few myself—moving from consulting to startups, from corporate to mission-driven work—and I know how challenging it is to reframe your experiences for something new. The good news? The skills and stories you already have are often more transferable than you think. As a coach, I help you get clear on your goals, position your experiences effectively, and build a personal narrative that resonates with hiring managers. Together, we’ll work on the practical side—resumes, LinkedIn profiles, networking strategies, interview prep—while also focusing on the bigger picture: what you want, why it matters, and how to get there. I particularly love working with professionals who feel “stuck” in their current role or unsure about what comes next. My goal is to bring both strategy and encouragement so you walk away with a plan that feels not only achievable, but energizing.

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.

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.

I’ve navigated a career path that spans consulting, Big Tech, and mid-market PE operations - experiences that give me a unique perspective as a coach. I started in management consulting at Deloitte, advising executives on strategy and transformation. From there, I transitioned into Google, where I worked across partnerships, strategy, and technical sales, learning how to thrive in one of the world’s most competitive tech environments. Today, as a Director of operations at Valsoft, I act as an operations executive across a portfolio of software companies, helping leadership teams grow and operate effectively. Having made these transitions myself, I know firsthand how to break into new industries, succeed once you’re in, and build the skills to lead — and I bring that experience directly into my coaching.
