I spent the last decade building and scaling unicorn startups (Samsara, Castlight, Verily) and building at scale at Google. I've helped raise over $3B in venture capital―taking 2 startups public, and growing product organizations from < 30 to 2000+ employees.
In the last 13 years, I've switched jobs within and across companies and roles ten times. I've held many roles, from engineer (hardware and software) to EM, TPM, PM, Chief of Staff, Engineering Operations, Founder, and Chief Product Officer.
Since 2020, I've coached 250+ job seekers to get organized, tell powerful stories, and land their dream jobs. My goal is to make the same tools and frameworks I teach in my 1:1 coaching available more broadly, building community along the way.
