The most important impact is the one you make on other people’s lives.
About Me
I’m a tech leader and a coach.
I started as an individual contributor, then progressed to a manager, and ultimately became a product leader. Along the way, I’ve seen what helps people thrive and what holds them back. I’ve worked in strong company cultures and dysfunctional ones, with high performers and with people who simply needed the right support to grow.
I believe leadership is a muscle we can build. It starts with self-awareness and grows through honest reflection, practical support, and selecting the right challenge at the right time.
I’ve worked in finance, strategy consulting, business operations, IT, and product management roles, leading teams at BCG, Microsoft, Meta, and in startups. I’ve launched products used by billions, but what’s been most meaningful to me is supporting the people around me: Product Managers, engineers, designers, marketers, and others.
In recent years, I’ve also advised founders, invested in early-stage ideas, and coached tech professionals navigating their own paths. I coach as part of my own practice and also partner with the following organizations: Women in Product, Berkeley SkyDeck, The Coaching Collaborative and JMentors.
After a few international moves, I now live in the San Francisco Bay Area with my husband, two kids, and two cats.

My Approach
My coaching is grounded in neuroscience and leadership development research from the Brown University Leadership and Performance Coaching Program, combined with 20+ years of real-world experience leading teams in tech and consulting.
I adapt my style to what you need — sometimes coaching through questions, sometimes advising based on what I've seen work. Clients describe my approach as compassionate, practical, and forward-looking. I lead with curiosity, focused on understanding who you are and what matters to you, while also challenging you to grow.
Why I Coach
As a first-generation college graduate, I stepped into the corporate world with drive but little guidance. My early roles pushed me beyond my comfort zone: leading more experienced teams, navigating tight budgets and shifting priorities, adapting through reorganizations and relocations, and rebuilding my network from scratch more than once. I also experienced the transformation of becoming a parent while striving to lead at a high level.
What made the difference wasn't just grit—it was mentors and managers who saw something in me before I saw it in myself. Their belief helped me build confidence and own my path. Today, those experiences shape how I coach: with presence, perspective, and a deep commitment to helping others grow into the leaders they're meant to be.
I've supported professionals throughout my career, including high performers who appear confident but quietly question themselves. Coaching allows me to do this work in a deeper, more transformative way.
I coach because I want people to know they have choices and don't have to follow a path that doesn't align with their needs and beliefs. You can choose how to show up, when to move fast, and when to slow down.
I coach to offer the support I once needed, the grounded, knowledgeable presence I wish I had earlier. My approach centers on gaining clarity, creating alignment, and building the confidence to pursue meaningful challenges. It's about helping you step into the fullest version of who you can be.
