My Story

I’m Harshita, a career coach, mentor, and tech leader who’s navigated the high-stakes worlds of finance and tech across New York, San Francisco, and London.

When I started out, I believed hard work and a strong network were enough to succeed. But I quickly learned that navigating your career especially in the tech world is rarely that simple. I spent years moving up the ladder in roles at BlackRock, LinkedIn, Amazon, and Expedia, all while battling imposter syndrome, burnout, and the quiet self-doubt no one talks about.

The turning point? Supportive mentors who helped me see that success isn’t just about skill, it’s about mindset, relationships, and confidence.

Now, I coach ambitious professionals across industries to break into tech, pivot with purpose, and grow with clarity. Whether you're just getting started or aiming for leadership, I'm here to help you feel seen, supported, and strategic in your next step.
