Throughout my career advising and mentorship experiences at the WashU Career Center, BlackRock’s Analyst Buddy Program, and Jewish Queer Youth (a nonprofit supporting LGBTQ+ Orthodox Jewish young adults), I have helped people: • Gain clarity on what makes them special: how their particular experiences, strengths, and traits shape them into one-of-a-kind individuals • Identify career goals that align with their passions, values, and desired lifestyles • Achieve their career goals by developing a unique personal brand and conveying this brand via application materials, professional communications, and interviews Getting accepted to BlackRock’s Analyst Program and then evaluating candidates for this program has given me firsthand insight into what’s required to stand out in competitive application processes and land amazing first roles.

Experienced CFO, investor, and entrepreneurial leader with a track record of success as a venture investor, business builder, fund-raiser and finance executive. While I continue to invest in venture capital, I developed my coaching practice in 2020 and since then have helped dozens of executives and entrepreneurs upskill, raise capital, find new opportunities, and excel in the new positions. I have done this work across industries, but most of my clients are entrepreneurs in tech/biotech, investment professionals in private equity/venture capital, or in real estate. I started my career as an investment banker at Morgan Stanley and Smith Barney (now Citi) before getting my MBA at Harvard Business School. I spent several years in private equity and venture capital at Warburg Pincus before moving into public equity investing at hedge funds, including my own for several years. Most recently I pivoted back to venture capital with a new firm, 3Spoke Capital, and spent two years as the CFO of a new AI/medtech venture, PreciseDx, for which I raised over $20MM in a Series B. All the while I was active in the recruitment, training, and management of high performance teams. I know how to build great teams, help you find a role within them, and crush the new job once you secure it.
