Hi and welcome to my profile! With 3 years of experience as a Product Manager at Bloomberg and other firms, I specialize in guiding aspiring product managers to success. I’m fortunate to have been able to build an incredibly successful early career in product; I’ve launched multiple products from idea to production, aligned with teams across businesses, and built a very strong reputation among PMs, stakeholders, and senior leaders. Currently, I am coaching three individuals, helping them go from beginners to top candidates by refining their product, soft skills, interviewing, networking, and so much more. Let's connect and craft a personalized plan to achieve your career goals in product management!

Hi, I’m a product leader, hiring manager, and ICF-trained coach passionate about helping experienced PMs and product owners unlock their full potential and maximize impact. While I enjoy meeting clients from all backgrounds, folks who typically reach out to me are: • Product owners who wear multiple hats in a start-up environment and/or are challenged by complex PMF (and people) problems • Experienced PMs* who have led impactful product initiatives but struggled to showcase their best selves in job search • Mid-career PMs who are looking for opportunities to level up to staff/principal PMs, or cross the chasm to people manager roles Why I’m Qualified to Coach: 🔮 Hiring Manager and Promo Committee Experience: I’ve interviewed 500+ candidates and designed PM hiring processes for both public companies and startups, offering you insider knowledge of what hiring managers look for. I've also sat on the promo committee, know how the promo conversation goes behind the scenes, and helped multiple PMs get the career advancement that they deserve. 📈 Proven Product Leadership: I’ve launched multiple 0-to-1 products at Coursera. Before Coursera, I led Product & Design at VC-backed AI SaaS startups with a successful exit. In my peer's words, "She rose through the ranks from Senior PM to GPM, leading some of the company’s biggest and most strategic projects. On top of that, she mentored multiple PMs who went on to become fast risers themselves". 💙 Diverse Career Background: I was Head of Product at startups, management consultant, angel investor, and non-profit executive. This gives me a holistic perspective on how to navigate career decisions based on one's values vs FOMO. 🙌 Actionable Coaching Approach: As an ICF-trained coach with 100+ coaching hours, I focus on deeply listening, asking thoughtful questions, and providing structured, action-oriented guidance. My coaching combines empathy, structure, and practical tools to deliver results-driven support. Whether you’re preparing for your next leadership role or solving complex product challenges in a corporate or startup setting, I’m here to help you gain clarity, build confidence, and align your career with your values. *NOTE: Due to capacity constraints, I’m unable to support aspiring PMs without professional experience at this time. However, I’d be happy to refer you to other amazing coaches on Leland!

1. I'm currently a Sr. Product Manager at Varo and graduated from UC Berkeley. 2. I've worked on products at various-sized companies, ranging from a high-growth Series A FinTech startup to big tech. 3. I switched from investment banking to product management during my senior year of college not knowing what could happen (scary, right). I was able to leverage everything I learned about recruiting toward my product journey and became a Product Manager at Square within ~1.5 years of graduating knowing nothing but traditional finance.

Seasoned product thinker with 7 years of experience building products in Big Tech including Google, LinkedIn, Salesforce, and Slack as well as zero to one innovation at early stage start ups and growth stage companies (Nextdoor). I've helped numerous clients land product roles in Big Tech and at start ups. I'm here to help you through the full process as much as you'd like from networking strategy, resume reviews, identifying job opportunities, and all the way through interview prep and negotiating your dream offer. In my journey into product, I pivoted from a strategy role so am happy to help folks looking to transition. I've been there and can help you successfully navigate re-framing your experiences and learning how to "speak like a PM".

As a Product Manager, I have helped build the strategy and product to 4x revenue for a startup that then went public via SPAC (Talkspace), and joined as #3 building out the product function at a $1.2B-valued mental health-tech company. Most of my experience is in Consumer Product, but I've also worked in B2B Product.

I started my career as a pre-med student working for a Major League baseball team and have been fortunate to have worked at companies like Instagram, Google and Opendoor. Through this journey I've made the difficult transitions not only between wildly different industries but also between business, operational and now product roles. Through my own experiences and helping others with theirs, I've learned tactics on how to navigate these transitions and big career decisions. My hope is by working together we can help identify where you want to go next and ultimately find a way to get you into the company, team and role you want!

I successfully navigated the Google APM intern process, which has a sub-0.5 % acceptance rate. I received a return offer and will be joining the Google APM program, one of the most prestigious APM programs available. I worked on integrating Gemini into Google's developer database.

I have 10+ years of product management experience and conducted hundreds of interviews, seeing all kinds of success and failure—yes, there are patterns you can master. Currently Staff PM at Stitch Fix, previously product lead at TikTok, Pinterest and PayPal. I have helped 20+ people later to get in Facebook and Google through peer coaching and I know the pattern really well on how to impress your interviewers and hit all the right points. It applies not only to tier 1 companies like Google, Facebook, DoorDash, Pinterest, but also can be twisted slightly and help you get the job for start-ups. It's amazing how the formula works and I would love to help more people to get their dream jobs.
