Typical Client Profiles

My core coaching clients are deep thinkers who are eager for change. I love working with people who are open, open-minded, and committed.

Clients come to me from a variety of roles, including mid-level managers, founders, post-MBAs, and C-suite executives.

I’ve worked with clients in finance, technology, venture capital, startups, healthcare, entertainment, large corporates, food and beverage, consumer goods, and industrials.

I have deep finance experience (private equity, hedge fund, and investment banking), so clients with high-intensity careers appreciate how I understand the associated demands, culture and challenges.
