She has always been a self-described “nerd,” which helped her to pursue a Ph.D. in chemistry. After a post-doc at National Laboratories, she became an R&D group manager at a small company in Silicon Valley. Recently, she co-founded a tech company and has been working as a CEO. She has always loved to figure out how things worked in the technical sense, but has also loved to work with people whenever she was not running an instrument. For that reason, she became a coach and co-founded Daisuki-Coaching, and has been coaching women/men in the tech/science field to move forward in their careers. Daisuki = “I love” in Japanese :)

Do you ever feel like a fraud? Are you living with chronic self-doubt? Do you question whether you deserve to be in your role? If so, you're not alone! As a leadership coach and lifelong struggler with impostor syndrome, I wanted to create a space where professionals can tell their personal stories and unburden themselves of the silent shame that comes with this experience. I also wanted listeners to be able to hear themselves in others and realize that they are not alone. On this podcast, we'll share the stories of professionals from different backgrounds who've struggled with and learned to manage impostor syndrome. We'll also learn from experts on how to better manage ourselves and our environments to minimize the overall threat of impostor syndrome. Let's erase the stigma and stop feeling ashamed of these very normal experiences. And let's come together to share our challenges and strategize how to effectively rise above them.
