I’m an executive and leadership coach who helps high-achieving leaders navigate growth, transition, or burnout. I bring 20+ years of experience leading complex, high-stakes work across Tech, Security & Privacy, Operations, and Consumer Products, including 18 years at Google. I’m an ICF-certified coach with Stanford degrees in International Relations and Industrial Engineering & Engineering Management.
At Google, I served as Director of Program Management, leading senior leaders and cross-functional teams across 7,000–10,000-person organizations. I built teams and programs from the ground up, led global organizations of up to 30 direct and indirect reports, trained thousands of employees, and served as a general manager for policy infrastructure teams spanning product, engineering, and operations. I created Google’s first Insider Risk program for Search and Assistant, pivoting into Security & Privacy without prior background and driving cultural change across a 7,000-person org.
As a coach, I work with high achievers, especially those wrestling with imposter syndrome, perfectionism, confidence gaps, or feeling like they don’t quite “fit the mold,” including first-generation professionals. My style is calm, supportive, and deeply human, while also direct and challenging when it comes to limiting beliefs. I help leaders build confidence, make high-stakes decisions, and step into their authority without burning themselves out.
Clients say I create a steady, safe space that allows real breakthroughs to happen. They leave our sessions not just with clarity, but with confidence, practical frameworks, and concrete action plans they can use immediately.
My approach is shaped by lived experience. As a first-generation Korean-American who has lived and worked in France and Japan, I coach with empathy, steadiness, and conviction. Outside of coaching, I’m a mom of two boys who loves yoga, strength training, hiking, good books, cooking, and laughter—anchors that keep my work grounded and sustainable.
