Are you looking to get better at navigating ambiguous technical/business or organizational problems? Do you want to recognize which skills you can develop further or which gaps are holding you back in your career?
Whether you're an engineering manager leading a fast growing team, are new to management or a seasoned IC looking to level up, I can help you achieve your goals.
I use an adaptive coaching style that builds on my own experience building from scratch and leading multiple strong, fast-growing, product development teams.

My passion lies in developing high-performing engineering teams focused on impactful solutions. I focus on the intersection between Product Management, Partnership Development and Engineering. At Google, I spearheaded the Sustainable Journeys team, developing features that empower consumers to choose eco-friendly travel options. We made trains and buses more accessible and integrated CO2 emission estimates into Google Flights. These efforts directly influence user behavior and accelerate progress towards emission transparency in the aviation industry.
Prior to that, I was a Founder in Residence at Area 120, Google's internal early stage project incubator.

With over 50+ coaching sessions behind me, my approach is hands-on and collaborative. I draw from my experience as a leader and consultant to provide personalized guidance. Together, we'll define your goals, identify any roadblocks, and craft a development plan that leverages your strengths. Successful engineering leadership involves more than just technical expertise. I can help you build the communication and interpersonal skills needed to build a thriving, motivated team.
