“I have been in the field of student development for 10+ years. As a previous consultant, I worked with investment bankers, management consultants and other high performing business professionals to explore their career advancement and helped them in the process of applying to top MBA programs in the U.S. Then I transferred my coaching skills to higher education and worked in academic advising, executive education, and eventually career development. At Cal, my goal is to empower Haas students to think beyond the first post-college job and pursue their long term career success.”
