About Me
With 18 years of experience as a business leader in tech and retail, I now help leaders at all stages of their careers to navigate growth, overcome challenges, and step confidently into what’s next. I partner with a diverse range of professionals, including tech executives, operations leaders, product managers, marketing directors, and entrepreneurs.
Before becoming a coach, I led teams at Amazon, Audible, Accenture, and high-growth, venture-backed startups, with a focus on operations, retail management, supply chain, and customer service. While I loved solving complex problems and building strong teams, what truly energized me was listening to people’s stories, helping them clarify their goals, and supporting them in getting where they wanted to go.
In my own journey, I experienced the transformative power of getting clear on what I truly wanted, building confidence, overcoming limiting beliefs, and giving myself permission to explore new paths. Those pivotal moments inspired me to pursue coaching—bringing together my business experience and deep passion for helping others grow, both personally and professionally.
I hold a BA from Wellesley College, an MBA from Wharton, and am trained through the Berkeley Executive Coaching Institute.
I live in the San Francisco Bay Area with my husband and two daughters.

Client Testimonials
“Working with Serena helped me uncover deeper patterns in how I approach my career, particularly around self-advocacy, confidence, influence, and boundaries. I came into our sessions feeling burnt out and uncertain about the next step in my career but left with greater self-awareness of how to reframe my challenges, recognize where I was limiting myself, and develop a more intentional approach to career growth.”

"Serena helped me see my strengths in a new light. I came into coaching uncertain about my leadership abilities, but Serena guided me to recognize the value of my experiences and achievements. With her support, I shifted from doubt to embracing my superpowers, and learned to confidently own my accomplishments. This shift has had a meaningful impact on how I show up as a leader."
