Career Coaching Coaches

Internships are confusing. With most students being expected to figure them out with zero guidance. I’m here to change that! Together, we’ll clarify your long-term goals, identify internships that actually move you toward them, and build a realistic plan for applying with confidence. I’ll support you through every step of the process, from figuring out what to apply for, to crafting strong applications, to navigating interviews and next steps. I’m especially passionate about helping students who don’t already have built-in access, insider knowledge, or a clear roadmap. Internships can be powerful — but only when they’re intentional. My goal is to help you use them strategically, not randomly. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how internships fit into your bigger picture, I’d love to work with you.

I've made every major career move without a playbook, city government to Goldman Sachs, Goldman to a failed startup, startup to Disney where I now lead AI engineering. Each jump was different and each one taught me something about knowing when to stay, when to go, and how to position yourself for roles that actually fit. I help tech professionals and leaders with career transitions, interview strategy, and figuring out what they want next. Whether you're eyeing VP, pivoting into AI - I've been through it and I coach from experience, not a textbook.

My experience includes consulting on high-visibility work with Google, Nestlé, Loblaw, Spin Master, Gildan Activewear, XPRIZE Foundation, and more. I've co-authored a white paper with Google on plastics circularity, published a technical paper in the Oxford Academic Journal on the economic evaluation of CO₂ derived materials, and was interviewed as a thought leader for one of Canada’s grocery industry magazines. Educated as an engineer and trained in coaching & facilitation, I've spent 10 years working in strategy consulting and corporate sustainability, spending >100 hours in executive leadership and Board rooms, facilitating discussions and decisions on corporate strategies for multinational companies. A few client testimonials from C-suite and executive leaders can be found on my LinkedIn.

Who I work with: Ambitious professionals (typically 2–7 years in) at top firms, consultancies, or post-MBA who are navigating one of these moments: - You're successful by every external measure and quietly wondering if this is actually what you want - You know you need to make a move but keep rationalizing staying - You're in a career transition and the options feel overwhelming, so you're stalling - You want to create an unconventional opportunity inside a large organization but don't know how to position it - You've been "thinking about it" for months and need someone to hold you accountable to actually doing something What makes this different: I combine strategic consulting rigor with actual psychology. That means I'm not just helping you update your resume or prep for interviews (though I can). I'm helping you understand why you keep getting stuck in the first place — so the pattern doesn't follow you to the next role. What a session looks like: We don't do vague "how are you feeling about your career" conversations. Every session has a focus, and you leave with something concrete - a reframed understanding of what's driving your decision, a specific action plan, or an honest answer to a question you've been avoiding. Format: 1:1 sessions, virtual
