Hi! I’m Your Career Strategist.
I help professionals navigate critical junctures of their finance career – breaking in, leveling up, and pivoting out – because I’ve been there and I’ll make it easier for you.
Before coaching, I built my career in Investment Banking and Sales & Trading, climbing the corporate ladder to Managing Director in under 12 years. I earned my seat at the table in a high-stakes, fast-paced environment defined by relentless hustle and pressure. My success didn’t happen by chance - I thrived because I was deliberate. I honed my executive presence, built an influential network, and ensured my measurable achievements were both impactful and visible—skills I can help you master.
As Your Career Strategist, I combine the self-discovery nature of traditional coaching with the targeted guidance of a mentor, expediting your journey with the support of an invaluable network. Whether you’re seeking momentum in your current role or navigating a career pivot, you’ll leave with a clear, actionable plan to achieve your goals—efficiently, effectively, and with confidence.
Aside from coaching, I’m passionate about travel, food, and skiing – always seeking new experiences and opportunities to learn and grow. I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by friends and family or immersed in the beauty of nature. These moments fuel my creativity, keep me grounded, and remind me what life is all about.
