I am passionate about enabling people to reach their full potential. I view the world through an inclusive lens, a practice I learned while growing up in an African American and Algerian family. After launching my career as a team leader in operations at a private industrial company, I joined the Human Capital Management division at Goldman Sachs where I spent three years developing strategic talent, equity, and inclusion initiatives. After earning my MBA from Harvard Business School, I pivoted to a career in Tech working in strategy & operations roles. In my current role as Strategic Projects Lead at BetterUp, a digital coaching tech startup, I apply my cumulative experience in coaching, strategy, and operations to advance the company's mission: helping people everywhere live their lives with greater clarity, purpose, and passion.
While earning my MBA from HBS, I held multiple leadership roles to advance HBS admissions efforts as an admissions ambassador and on the African American Student Union board. I applied my professional expertise to the school’s Equity and Inclusion Council as the representative for the Women’s Student Association. I continued to expand my professional experience as a student through internships in management consulting and venture capital, while contributing to global research efforts on the career paths of women in executive leadership.
I developed my passion for writing at Howard University where I earned her bachelor’s degree in English. To this day, I am most proud of serving as the commencement speaker for my class, sharing my story to connect with and inspire others. As an advisor at Square One Prep, I love helping my clients craft stories that capture vulnerability, exude authenticity, and resonate with admissions committees.
When I’m not working, I am feeding my passion for art and culture—constantly looking for more space on the wall to hang a new piece. I also enjoy cooking, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
