About

I partner with experienced professionals and leaders to bridge the gap between where they are and where they want to be. I deeply understand challenges related to landing a job, career transitions, entrepreneurship, and/or feeling stuck without passion or purpose. The answers we seek usually already exist within us, we just need help to pull them out.
I'm a Global Incident Manager at Google. I've previously held positions as a Business Risk Assessment Investigator at Meta (Facebook) and as a U.S. Diplomat most recently posted in Kyiv, Ukraine. I have 10+ years experience working with others to efficiently and sustainably overcome complex global challenges related to risk, incident/crisis management, intelligence, public policy, and technology. In my free time I enjoy developing real estate, traveling, fitness, reading, scuba diving, building custom vehicles, and helping others navigate daily challenges related to work, school, and life.

What mentees say

on5 out of 5 stars
I was referred to Trae by a mutual friend just as he was starting to grow and market his coaching service. As a job coach who has worked for two major tech companies, Trae brings a lot of personal experience and knowledge to every step of the job search process, from presenting yourself well through your resume and LinkedIn to interview preparation and fielding offers. He was also very empathetic, listened a lot, and always kept focus on my needs, rather than superimposing his own view of how our meetings should go. I wholeheartedly recommend Trae as a guide in your job and career search!
