I am a former McKinsey consultant. I left the Firm after nearly 4 years this summer after 1 year spent working as an Engagement Manager/Project Leader.

I have vast experience leading teams across Europe on strategy, growth, due diligence and climate-tech projects. I have worked directly with C-suite clients, private equity funds and scale-ups on high-stakes problems where structured thinking and clear communication truly matter.

At McKinsey I coached junior colleagues on problem solving, communication and case performance, and I now help candidates reach the level of clarity and confidence expected in top-tier interviews.

Prior to McKinsey I worked in private-equity, and a boutique consultancy where I also conducted interviews for candidates.

My coaching focuses on building the skills that matter most in real MBB interviews: sharp structure, fast synthesis, clear communication and calm execution under pressure.

I like to record you, with your consent, and give you detailed feedback after each interview, in writing.
