About

I’m on a mission to level the playing field of building a successful career. I’m a WSJ bestselling author, Fortune 500 keynote speaker, UC Berkeley faculty member, Harvard career advisor, and proud first-gen college grad (Harvard College & Harvard Business School). My first book is the Wall Street Journal bestseller "The Unspoken Rules: Secrets to Starting Your Career Off Right," which Harvard Business School gifted to all of its MBAs to give them an edge in today’s hyper-competitive labor market. I’m a regular speaker at manager trainings, new hire orientations, Employee Resource Group (ERG) events, all-hands meetings, along with campus orientations, graduations, and more. Most recently, I released the “How to Say It” flashcards series, which are MadLib-style cue cards that help professionals know what to say in every professional situation. These cards are now a favorite in corporate swag bags, professional development workshops, and career coaching sessions. I currently write a newsletter that reverse engineers how people you know built successful careers — and the unspoken rule you can apply to your own career and life.
