Hi, I’m Melissa.

Career & Leadership Coach for Women in Pharma/Biotech

With over 15 years working across the Pharma and Biotech landscape, from CROs to biotech to big pharma and a Master’s in Organizational Psychology, I’ve seen firsthand the challenges women face in an industry that wasn’t designed for us. Now, as a Certified Professional Coach, I combine what I know as a woman who worked in HR and Talent in the industry, the best in career development strategies, and unparalleled growth that comes from coaching to share the insider strategies you won’t learn from school, your boss, or HR. I help ambitious women like you rise to meaningful roles of influence without burning out or playing by outdated, “brosky” rules.

I’m not just coaching careers, I’m leading a movement.

A movement of trailblazers who are defining their paths, going beyond the glass ceiling, and taking control of their careers without compromising who they are. I know what it’s like to feel overlooked and under-appreciated, but I also know how to navigate and succeed in a system that wasn’t built for us and I’m here to help you do the same.

It’s time to say goodbye to imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and overthinking. You’re capable of more than “good enough”. You deserve to lead with impact and create the career and life you’re truly worthy of.
