With degrees in medicine, neuroscience, psychology, and business, I have cultivated a deep understanding of human behavior, strategic thinking, and scientific analysis. My experience ranges from working as a medical science liaison in the industry, conducting cutting-edge research in regenerative medicine, and training as a plastic surgery resident, to mentoring individuals on academic and professional pathways. For over 12 years, I have been coaching clients in career development, helping them recognize their strengths, define their ambitions, and create structured roadmaps to achieve their goals. My approach is personalized, strategic, and empowering—I believe that true success stems from aligning personal passions with professional aspirations. Whether navigating career transitions, refining skills, or strategizing for long-term growth, I am committed to guiding individuals to unlock their full potential.

Hi, I’m Daisha (dy-ee-shuh) — career coach, people strategist, and passionate advocate for professionals looking to unlock their full potential. Over the past decade, I’ve guided leaders, career changers, and emerging talent across tech, nonprofit, and healthcare sectors to find clarity, build confidence, and take bold steps forward. I take a personal and strategic approach to career growth.

Welcome to my profile! As a career development coach with over two decades of career development experience, I specialize in helping professionals gain clarity, build confidence, and take meaningful steps toward their next career move. Throughout my HR leadership roles, I partnered with executives to develop key talent and led career development conversations as part of succession planning, team leadership, and organizational growth. Today, I bring that same strategic insight and personal support to my coaching clients—whether they’re navigating a pivot, pursuing promotion, or strengthening their leadership skills. Known for an insightful and encouraging approach, I help clients turn potential into progress. In addition, my top CliftonStrengths theme, “Developer,” reflects my natural ability to see the potential in others and my passion for helping others grow—and it's the foundation of everything I do.

While in business school, I worked in MBA admissions and saw firsthand how powerful great storytelling can be. That experience sparked what’s become a passion: helping people land life-changing roles in tech. Since then, I’ve coached over 100 job seekers—many from nontraditional paths—into roles at companies like Adobe, Google, Microsoft, and high-growth startups. I support across the full journey: refining resumes, sharpening stories, prepping interviews, and navigating offers and negotiations with confidence. As a hiring manager myself, I’ve conducted 100+ interviews for roles ranging from MBA interns to full-time product managers. I know what top tech companies are really looking for, and I bring that inside perspective to every coaching session. Whether you’re breaking into tech for the first time, pivoting into product marketing, or leveling up, I offer no-fluff, practical guidance to help you stand out and land the job.

With over 15 years in the media and adtech space, I have experience building and leading teams at both large organizations, such as Disney and eBay, as well as smaller, early-stage startups. After years of people management in the corporate world, I channeled my passion for helping individuals grow their own careers into my own coaching business aimed at making managers more confident, efficient and effective.

As a career development coach, I aid college students and early-career individuals in discovering their unique brilliance and leveraging this novel self-understanding to create careers uniquely suited to them. Throughout my career advising and mentorship experiences at the WashU Career Center, BlackRock’s Analyst Buddy Program, and Jewish Queer Youth (a nonprofit supporting LGBTQ+ Orthodox Jewish young adults), I have helped people: • Gain clarity on what makes them special: how their particular experiences, strengths, and traits shape them into one-of-a-kind individuals • Identify career goals that align with their passions, values, and desired lifestyles • Achieve their career goals by developing a unique personal brand and conveying this brand via application materials, professional communications, and interviews Getting accepted to BlackRock’s Analyst Program and then evaluating candidates for this program has given me firsthand insight into what’s required to stand out in competitive application processes and land amazing first roles. Moreover, my pivot from the financial industry into a clinical psychology doctoral program has equipped me to help clients navigate and execute fulfilling career changes. I have helped clients gain acceptance to selective internships, jobs, fellowships, and graduate schools, and have facilitated career transitions into Tech, consulting, and the nonprofit sector.

With 20+ years of experience in leadership development at PwC and Accenture, I specialize in helping individuals uncover and leverage their skills for success. Whether you're exploring a new role, transitioning sectors, or considering a complete career pivot, I guide you through the transformative process with care and expertise. Our journey begins by clarifying your life values, envisioning the changes you want short- and long-term, and setting actionable goals to bring that vision to life. Together, we address mindset shifts and tackle roadblocks that may arise. By combining coaching techniques with deep insight into leadership skill gaps, I help you align your career with your unique strengths and aspirations. I’m dedicated to my clients—providing undivided attention, judgment-free listening, and thoughtful questions to inspire new perspectives. I gently challenge when needed and hold space during emotional moments, always working in service of your growth.

With over two decades of experience spanning global finance, startups, tech, and higher education, I bring a unique perspective to career growth.

As a career coach, I’ve guided professionals at every stage, from graduate students launching their first roles to senior leaders refining their leadership presence. I help clients navigate job searches, career pivots, and professional development by offering strategic guidance on résumés, LinkedIn profiles, networking, and interview preparation. My goal is to empower individuals to translate their skills with clarity and confidence across industries and roles. Clients describe my coaching style as strategically sharp and deeply empathetic. I focus not only on tangible outcomes like landing a job or acing an interview, but also on long-term growth building resilience, self-awareness, and leadership capabilities that endure.
