About

Hi, I’m Ece, a strategy manager with ~8 years of experience across the tech industry, consulting, and top VC-backed startups (including McKinsey, Apple, and Ontra), and I hold an MBA from Columbia Business School. I design and lead interviews and career mentorship programs to help professionals break into consulting and strategy roles at high-growth companies.

As a mentor, I’m practical, honest, and supportive. I enjoy helping with:
- Career decision-making when there’s no clear answer
- Moving from consulting into tech, product, or operating roles
- Getting clarity before, during, or after an MBA
- Resume reviews, interview prep, and role positioning

If you’re feeling stuck, considering a pivot, or just want to talk things through with someone who’s been there, I’d be happy to help.

What happens when you start

You tell Ece your goals. They see exactly what you want to work on before session one.

You meet within days. Ece reviews your application and books your first session, usually within a day or two.

You leave with a plan. Concrete next steps and a weekly rhythm from your very first week.
