I’m available to take on new clients to support consulting job applications or general internship / new-grad job applications (note: I cannot coach anyone applying for tech roles due to my current position at Google). I can be flexible with your schedule and am happy to meet on weekdays or weekends! Please note: if you need to cancel or reschedule, please do so at least 24 hours in advance. Last minute cancels, reschedules, and no-shows may incur a charge.

About
Hi, I’m Samantha, a strategy-minded problem solver with a passion for mentorship. I coach across two core areas: helping people break into consulting and navigate early career decisions with confidence. I began my career at McKinsey, working across industries and learning firsthand what sets exceptional candidates apart. Today, I’m on Google’s Business Operations & Strategy team, where I get to work on strategic AI initiatives that shape the company at scale. Outside of work, I’m the person all friends turn to for help with resumes, recruiting strategy, and career crossroads, and I love it. Coaching is one of the most meaningful parts of my week — I’ve had incredible mentors who shaped my path, and I’m committed to doing the same for others. Whether you’re refining your story, learning how to case, or figuring out your next chapter, I’m here to support you however I can.

I received offers from Google as a Business Operations and Strategy Associate and Tesla as a Senior Business Strategy Associate. I decided to join Google in the New York City office, and I would love to help others land their dream Strategy and Operations roles. Prior to Google, I worked for almost two years at McKinsey in San Francisco. Between jobs, I took a six month ML/AI course through UC Berkeley Engineering School and Haas School of Business. I am excited to work with people in college just starting their career or during a career transition.

Why do I coach?
The main reason I coach is the strong impact mentors and advisors have had on me over the years. I am fortunate to have connected with amazing professionals and experts to advise me throughout my academic and professional life, and I would love to pay it forward and help others. I have always loved teaching and mentoring students whether that was by being a TA in college co-teaching an introductory business course subsection, volunteering at the Juvenile Detention Center in St. Louis, or more recently working with high school students on mental health awareness and advocacy at a local nonprofit. I would love to help you make your dreams a reality by landing amazing consulting and job offers!
