Career Coaching, Events, and Resources

Welcome to my profile! With a rich background in venture capital, social entrepreneurship and tech business development, I bring a wealth of experience to career development coaching. As the Co-Founder and former Co-CEO of Moringa School, I led a team that trained over 4,000 students with an impressive 85% job placement rate, demonstrating my commitment to transforming education and career outcomes. My role as Director of Business Development at Discord further honed my skills in building strategic partnerships and fostering connections in a new industry. Additionally, my work with Savannah Fund, LendHer Capital and as a Committee Member for Investisseurs et Partenaires has equipped me with unique insights into venture funding and supporting diverse entrepreneurs. Let's work together to unlock your potential and achieve your career goals!

Hi! My name is Alex. I work at LinkedIn, because my mission in life is to help people make career decisions and find jobs that make them happy - every day. I have 15 years of experience in many tech companies, from tiny San Francisco startups to management roles at Meta and LinkedIn. I want to make sure that I deliver value to professionals working with me. This is why I got my Career Advisor certification from IACA. Dozens of professionals worked with me to shape their dreams and make them reality.

I help PhDs in STEM fields transform their doctorate into a career superpower beyond academia. I hold a Doctorate in Physics from MIT and have worked with PhDs in academia and industry for over 12 years. I have succeeded in roles in C-level leadership, research, teaching, data analytics, program management, relationships management, product management, marketing, and customer service. I have learned first hand as well as from others how a PhD can accelerate a career in all of these areas. Whether you're ready to embark on a new adventure or use your analytical and technical skills to turbocharge your current trajectory, I will work with you to create an actionable roadmap to where you want to go. I only work with clients who are willing to dare greatly in pursuit of their goals and dreams. Among other things, I have helped clients: - Move continents for a new career - Transition to a new field - Effectively interact with C-level leadership - Build their own business

The biggest gift I feel each of us can give the world (and to ourselves) is showing up as your amazing, authentic self. My philosophy is just do you. I say it to my team, I say it to my kids and I say it to anyone that will listen! Each of us has amazing potential and sometimes we need to talk through different ways on how best to unlock it. That's where coaching comes in. If you know the power of coaching already...great. If you have never tried coaching before...it may seem scary and even uncomfortable. If you find the right coach, you quickly find it's not any of those things and it can be so empowering. Much of my 30+ year career has been dedicated to developing and empowering others...leading the training teams at the media agencies I worked at, teaching at NYU for 15 years, and now leading 20+ development workshops across our Global Business Organization (GBO) at Google. Throughout my career journey, I've had the pleasure of coaching hundreds of amazing people. I'm also a 20+ year manager (15 pre-Google & 5 at Google). I'm happy to work with you on whatever journey you may be on...being a more effective manager, looking for a new role or opportunity, etc. Remember...just do you.

I interview dozens of people every week for roles across product, BD, business strategy/operations, corporate development, and more - for our portfolio companies, our fund, and more. I love honing resumes, creating a user-centric application strategy tailored to your skillsets & goals, and executing to get the job/promotion/skillset you want. - Overall application strategy (e.g., holistic application review, nailing the “why,” etc.) - Resume review & fine tuning - Target company recommendations, actionable networking strategies - Comprehensive cover letter ideation, review & editing - Behavioral interview response ideation & strategy - Mock interviews

I believe that understanding yourself is key to effectively managing your career. I've been a top performer at leading companies like Facebook, Uber Eats, and Discord, consistently ranking in the top 5% of performance ratings. My experience and proven track record equip me to coach others in navigating their careers and achieving their own professional success.

Experienced coach in career development, having helped countless of people shape their career. Grew up in the country side in Belgium with a humble socio economic situation, got into the London School of Economics, worked as a consultant at McKinsey, now working at Microsoft in Dublin, living a life I never thought I'd one day achieve.

Deciding what you want to do is hard. It's something I've personally navigated over my career for the last decade. It's easier if you take a structured approach -- and that's what we'll do together! Over the course of our time, we'll explore what motivates you, where your strengths are, and build a framework to make career decisions together.
