Divya’s Product Management Qualifications
Experience level: Product Manager
Product manager with a technical background (BS / MS in computer science from Stanford). At Applied Intuition, I currently lead product for our core simulator. I've previously led product for early-stage projects at Google X (the Moonshot Factory) and have done freelance product consulting for startups ranging in size from pre-seed to series D. I'm a deferred Stanford GSB MBA admit, and will matriculate soon. I've successfully coached three individuals, helping them break into product management, navigate the complexities of their roles, and excel in their careers. I've also provided admissions counseling to help students get into top schools and deferred MBA programs. Whether you're looking to break into PM roles, get admitted to a top undergrad / masters / MBA deferred program, or advance your current position, I'm here to guide you every step of the way. Let's connect and chart your path to success!

About Divya
Hey y'all! I'm a product manager with experience at 2 unicorn startups and at GoogleX. I've also done freelance product consulting at startups ranging from pre-seed to Series D, and have helped hire PMs. I'm also a deferred MBA admit to Stanford GSB. Outside of work, I love riding horses and scouting coffee shops across SF. I'd love to chat with you, especially if you're interested in growing your skills as a PM or applying to MBA programs!
Why do I coach?
Coaches & mentors have always helped me figure out how to make my dreams come true. I've received invaluable career advice, found sounding boards for choosing between opportunities, and gained confidence to pursue paths I once thought were out of reach through a combination of inspiration and tactical advice. I work with each of my clients to understand their goals (even the ones that seem scary and out of reach) and chart a roadmap to achieving them. Then, I'll provide ongoing mentorship and accountability, from application and resume review to mock interviews and more. I'm here to help you achieve your most ambitious professional and academic goals.
