About Drew
Hi, I'm Drew! A Stanford GSB grad and mental healthtech entrepreneur (seed stage, 11 employees). My experience spans large-cap tech PE, tech company leadership, early-stage healthcare investing and startup leadership. Business school allowed me to pivot into entrepreneurship. I was admitted to both Stanford and Harvard. Outside work, I love to hike/backpack, ski, play hockey and golf, travel, and sports bet. Topics I'm excited to coach about: MBA apps, interviewing (PE, VC, startups), entrepreneurship, career pivoting.
Why do I coach?
Coaching turns "I have no idea what I'm doing" into "I can do this." --> whether its applying to a top MBA, going after a role at your dream company or learning how to build a team/product/company.
