1 What do you like most about Berkeley?
What sets Berkeley apart for me is the combination of challenging work and an incredible team. I’ve always loved consulting—helping people solve complex problems is what drives me—and this firm focuses on tackling some of the most difficult, high-impact challenges at the most strategic levels of an organization. That kind of work is exactly what I want to continue doing.
Beyond the work itself, the culture here is unlike anything I’ve experienced before. From day one, people made the effort to get to know me—not just as a consultant but as a person. It truly feels like a tight-knit, supportive family. Another key difference is the level of ownership and autonomy. While my past consulting experience allowed me to work closely with clients, here, I’ve found even greater responsibility and the opportunity to shape solutions in meaningful ways.
It’s rare to find a place that combines high-impact work with such a strong, people-first culture, and that’s what makes Berkeley stand out for me.
2What core value or approach do you use to help clients achieve their aspirations?
My core approach to helping clients achieve their aspirations is rooted in a few key principles: do the right thing, keep it simple, be kind, stay positive, and always put the client first. Success comes from working hard while maintaining clarity—focusing on the real problem and ensuring the best solution, which may or may not be the one the client initially envisioned.
I help clients feel confident in reaching their goals by creating a clear, realistic path forward. That means identifying key risks, blockers, and dependencies early and proactively managing them to keep the outcome on track. Complex challenges require smart solutions, but they don’t have to be overcomplicated. Simplicity is powerful—it ensures alignment, builds momentum, and ultimately drives real, lasting impact.

Outside of work, I’m passionate about exploring new restaurants and making my way through New York City’s incredible food scene. I’m a huge foodie and believe some of the best connections happen over a great meal. I also love attending comedy shows, checking out exciting events around the city, and, of course spending quality time with family and friends.
My career has been shaped by taking chances, meeting the right people, and having the privilege of working with supportive and trusting leaders. At my core, I’m motivated by my values—doing the right thing, striving to be my best, and making a meaningful impact. Whether it’s helping a client, supporting a colleague, or sharing a great meal with friends, I aim to bring energy, enthusiasm, and a little bit of fun into everything I do.
