Based on 4 verified mentee reviews
I’ve been a People Leader at four companies (Palantir, One Medical, Instacart, and InVision) that have scaled to unicorn+ status where I built and led the people team through hypergrowth.
I now advise CEOs, People Leaders, and Venture Capital Firms to bring those learnings to companies around the world as they transition to distributed, people-first cultures.
I partner with Series A to C companies as an advisor during stages of high growth. I specialize in helping companies build a strong people operations foundation, create best-in-class employee experiences, avoid expensive mistakes, and plan for the future.
Mentoring the next generation of people leaders and consultants is my favorite part of my work!
