I’m currently completing my MBA at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business, building on a public policy degree from UC Riverside, where I graduated summa cum laude. My experience spans nearly a decade across government, nonprofits, consulting, and corporate strategy — including roles with McKinsey & Company, the San Francisco Foundation, the U.S. House Financial Services Committee, and the San Francisco Office of Cannabis. Across these sectors, I’ve built financial models, translated complex policy into clear strategy, and supported leadership teams through high-stakes decisions. That cross-sector perspective shapes how I work with students — bringing structure, clarity, and a focus on real-world application.

My approach is grounded in helping you make meaningful progress quickly. I focus on building practical frameworks you can actually use — whether that’s structuring a case interview, strengthening writing, improving presentations, or navigating a career decision. I’ve mentored college students through structured academic and career support programs, helping them navigate transitions, define clear goals, and build long-term plans. I also work with undergraduates, MBA candidates, and early-career professionals on career strategy and professional development. I don’t lecture — I work alongside you to break down complex ideas, identify gaps, and turn uncertainty into a clear, actionable plan.

I work best with motivated individuals who are serious about growth — whether you’re preparing for an interview, refining communication skills, or navigating a career pivot. As someone who had to build structure without a clear roadmap, I bring both honesty and a high standard to every session. My goal isn’t just short-term results — it’s to help you develop the judgment, confidence, and tools to perform at a higher level. If you’re ready to put in the work, I’d be glad to connect.
