About Sammi
I began my career as a SaaS sales manager and transitioned through my MBA program into management consulting, before returning to the tech space. During grad school, I developed a passion for career coaching—helping individuals navigate graduate admissions, job searches, interview preparation, and overall career planning. I specialize in coaching for the interview process, with deep expertise in consulting case study interviews, and have guided clients to secure positions at top-tier companies like Google, McKinsey, BCG, EYP, PwC, Amazon, Birchbox, The Peace Corps, and various tech startups. Additionally, I offer tailored support in salary negotiation strategies, helping clients land not only the job but the compensation they deserve. Whether you're looking to pivot your career, unsure how to start your job search, or need a comprehensive application strategy for undergrad or MBA admissions—I'm here to help. Currently, I'm an incoming consultant with a top 3 consulting firm (MBB) and previously interned with Google as an MBA candidate. With over five years as the top-performing sales rep at a social listening SaaS company, I bring a unique blend of industry knowledge and practical experience to help you achieve your professional goals. Let’s connect! Book an intro call, and we can explore how I can support you in reaching your career aspirations.
Why do I coach?
I coach because I’m passionate about helping people unlock their potential and navigate the often complex and overwhelming process of career transitions. Having gone through my own journey of pivoting from sales to consulting, I know firsthand how intimidating it can be to break into new industries, prepare for rigorous interviews, and negotiate for the best outcomes. Coaching allows me to share the knowledge and strategies that helped me succeed, so others can confidently pursue their career goals. For me, the most rewarding part is seeing my clients land roles they’ve worked hard for, often in companies they once thought were out of reach. Whether it’s guiding someone through a career pivot, perfecting their interview technique, or helping them negotiate a salary that reflects their worth, coaching gives me the chance to make a meaningful impact on their professional lives. I believe everyone deserves to thrive in a career that excites them, and coaching gives me the opportunity to be part of that transformation.
