Throughout my whole childhood I thought I was going to be a doctor, going so far as to study Neuroscience and complete the pre-med track at Colgate. After 6 months in what was supposed to be a gap year as a Life Sciences Consultant, I realized that not only did my skills better align with the business side of healthcare, but that I could still make an impact on patients without being a practicing clinician. From there, I worked in Corporate Development & Strategy as well as Portfolio Planning in Biotech before getting my MBA / MPH at Berkeley Haas. Where I completed internships at both Pfizer (Marketing Rotational Program) and UCLA Health (Healthcare Administration in Operations) before returning to Pfizer for the full time MBA Marketing Rotational Program. At Haas I led the careers team for the Haas Healthcare Association, where I put on multiple networking events with companies across the healthcare ecosystem and helped coach many of my MBA and MPH peers on the full time or internship roles they might be interested in, how to break into healthcare consulting, health tech, biotech / pharma, and many other roles throughout healthcare. I also was a storytelling and public speaking coach and bring those skills to interview prep and career development planning as well.
