Welcome to my profile! I’m a strategy and growth leader with experience at McKinsey & Company and BCG Digital Ventures, where I’ve worked at the intersection of growth strategy, digital/omnichannel marketing, and go-to-market execution. I’ve partnered with teams across healthcare and consumer-focused businesses to diagnose what’s really driving performance, build practical roadmaps, and translate strategy into measurable results. I earned my MBA from MIT Sloan School of Management and previously served as a Graduate Teaching Assistant, which sharpened how I coach: structured thinking, clear communication, and repeatable tools you can use long after our session. Before consulting, I built a strong foundation in performance marketing and analytics across agencies—so I’m equally comfortable with “boardroom strategy” and the details that make it work in the real world. If you’re trying to break into consulting, level up your case/fit storytelling, or reposition your experience for strategy, growth, GTM, or ops roles, I can help. We’ll build a crisp narrative, identify the highest-leverage gaps, and create a plan that actually matches how hiring decisions get made.

Seasoned career coach

I'm an expert in the professional version of hopscotch: I've jumped across industries, sectors, functions, pay grades, cities, countries, and more. There's of course a thread that ties my career arc together - I'd love to tell you about it. But overall, I've followed what's tugged at my heartstrings in the moment, believing that I can continue to weave that thread toward more and more fulfilling and impactful work over time. Lots of lessons learned thus far, but I'd say it's going alright. All of these career pitstops mean I know a good bit about a lot of very different working environments (including consulting, big tech, education, workforce development, childcare, national service, place-based partnerships, philanthropy, and government). And perhaps more importantly, I'm very well-versed in the networking and job search strategies needed to make your next pivot in any direction on the career ladder. I don't take myself too seriously - just trying to bring energy and joy to my career (and life overall) day in and day out. If anything about my hopscotch-y background grabs your attention, I'd be glad to help in any way I can.

I’ve helped students and recent grads land roles across a wide range of industries — from big tech and consulting to finance, startups, and research. My clients have received offers from top employers like Amazon, Capital One, KPMG, PwC, AIG, and early-stage startups. Whether you're targeting internships, full-time roles, or pivoting careers, I bring a personalized approach rooted in strategic positioning and practical prep. As someone who’s been through competitive recruiting processes myself — and coached others through hundreds of resume reviews, coffee chats, and interview rounds — I know what it takes to stand out. My goal is to help you tell your story with confidence, navigate uncertainty, and land the job that's right for you.
