I am a 20+ year sales & marketing executive that has worked at Fortune 500 companies (P&G, Google, and Meta), and have been a Chief Revenue Officer at an AI analytics startup. I have interviewed and managed people at all ends of the spectrum from new hires to VP / excecs, in the US and APAC.

I've helped dozens of clients level up their career faster and find work more aligned with their strengths and interests. My approach starts by helping clients better understand themselves and the ecosystems in which they operate. We build on that understanding to craft an inspiring vision for the future. Based on that vision, we develop a set of hypotheses about what to do next. We then test each hypothesis with a small-scale, low-cost experiments, such as a new project, a new behavior, or a new side hustle. Finally, we feed the data from those experiments back into your understanding of yourself and your ecosystems. It's a virtuous feedback cycle, and the results speak for themselves.
