Transitioning from the Military Coaches

I served eight years as a U.S. Army MEDEVAC Blackhawk pilot, including a combat deployment to Afghanistan. When it came time to transition, I had no roadmap. As a first-generation college student with no family or network in the business world, I had to figure out everything from scratch: what an MBA even was, how to apply, how to talk about my military experience in a way that resonated with admissions committees and recruiters. I ended up getting accepted to MIT Sloan, Kellogg, Haas, Fuqua, Darden, and Tuck, and today I work as a Product Manager at Microsoft. I coach military members and veterans through the full arc of transition, whether that means exploring MBA programs, pivoting into tech, or simply figuring out what comes next. I know how isolating it can feel when the civilian world speaks a completely different language, and I'm here to help you translate your experience into a compelling story.

Welcome to my profile! As a former Special Forces Officer with the United States Army, I have firsthand experience navigating the transition from military to civilian careers.

I am now working in a Business Development/Growth role at a high growth defense tech startup. I am passionate about helping fellow veterans leverage their unique skills and experiences to successfully transition into roles in business and beyond. Let's connect and create a tailored plan to achieve your career goals!

I have an MBA and a Master of Engineering Management, which allow me to work at the intersection of strategy, operations, finance, and technical delivery. I also hold technical certifications aligned with execution and governance (PMP, CSM, ITIL v4, COP, CPCM, CFCM). Hard technical skills include SysML and MBSE (ystem modeling and requirements traceability) Python and R (data analysis and modeling), and quantitative methods for cost, risk, and performance assessment.

As a former U.S. Army Captain and West Point graduate, I understand the unique challenges and opportunities that come with transitioning from the military to civilian careers. My journey took me from leading in the Army to earning an MBA from Harvard Business School and working as a Consultant at Bain & Company. I now work in Defense Tech. I've helped numerous veterans leverage their military experience to secure roles at top-tier companies. Whether you're aiming for a career in Consulting, Defense Tech, or any other field, I'm here to guide you through every step of the process.

I help professionals navigate career transitions by bringing together their work experience, personal journey, and future ambitions into a clear and compelling narrative—whether for admissions committees or prospective employers. This is particularly valuable if you’re seeking to pivot into the policy, national security, or defense technology space, or if you’re preparing to pursue graduate school as part of your next chapter. I earned my Master’s in Public Affairs, with a certificate in Science, Technology, and Environmental Policy, from Princeton’s School of Public and International Affairs while serving in the military. My professional background spans finance, the military, policy, government, social entrepreneurship, and technology. I’ve also published widely on policy and technology across a dozen outlets and was recognized with a literary award in my field. If you want to align your background and values into a cohesive story—whether for an admissions panel or for new opportunities in policy, national security, or defense technology—I’d be glad to set up an introductory call to learn more about your goals.

I'm excited about helping transitioning veterans figure out what their experience and leadership in uniform means to the civilian and corporate world to make the most of their newfound freedom.

When I was transitioning out of the military, all I got was my DD214, a handshake, and a pat on the back. It can be rough leaving a structured environment and being in command of troops, managing millions of dollars in equipment, and being trusted to be succeed in whatever mission you're tasked with - to being completely on your own - but not anymore.
