For ambitious leaders ready to lead with purpose and presence.
As a certified executive coach, I work with leaders to master critical conversations, inspire confidence, and move people and outcomes forward.
Together we will refine your executive presence, elevate your voice, and navigate pivotal moments with precision and poise, in real-time.
Because true leadership is revealed in how you communicate—especially when the stakes are high.
I teach professionals how to communicate effectively, influence outcomes, and grow into bold, trusted leaders.
It’s a bold belief, but I’ve seen it play out time and again: powerful communication shapes powerful leaders.
Yet far too often, talented professionals are overlooked—not because they lack vision, but because they haven’t been taught how to communicate it with clarity, conviction, and nuance.
My clients are
Seasoned Professionals: Ready to elevate their leadership style, strengthen their executive presence, and drive lasting results — while leading high-performing teams, influencing at scale, and navigating growth with clarity.
Aspiring Leaders: Who want to step into leadership roles with confidence — building their leadership voice, growing strategic visibility, and leading with intention from the start.
My coaching is designed for anyone ready to take ownership of their potential, shift limiting beliefs, and lead with authenticity. I help my clients improve their communication skills, strengthen their emotional intelligence, and enhance their organizational effectiveness.
How we work together
My solution-focused methodology combines:
Deep mindset work to identify and reframe internal narratives that may be holding you back.

I had a phenomenal conversation with Kajal.
From start to finish, the meeting was packed with value, directly in reference to the topics I was looking to discuss. Kajal did not stall and made every minute count. She was even kind enough to create a personalized reference email detailing key moments from our conversation, include links to resources I may find useful, and listed strategies she believes would assist me on my journey. With just the first call, I have a much clearer sense of direction of my goals and how to go about achieving them.
- HAMLEY V, TECH SALES
Needless to say, Kajal's expertise in company culture, management, and career fulfillment has been invaluable to me.
"I've been working with Kajal for less than a year, and in that time I've (1) reflected on my career goals/values, (2) made the decision to make a change, and (3) secured a role above my salary expectations with a $10,000 signing bonus. She has made herself available to me beyond our scheduled sessions, and I appreciate that when she is available, her presence is an intentional and empathetic one that then translates your root cause issues into practical solutions."
- ALISON, BRAND MARKETING
My first coaching session with Kajal exceeded my expectations.
"She is very nuanced in the questions she asks and the tools she recommends - I left my session with a feeling of lightness and ease. I also had clarity on some tangible next steps to take in my career journey - and intend to set up some more sessions with Kajal."
- CHELSEA, VP OF COMMUNICATIONS
Kajal's intellect, approach, and toolkits facilitated a productive discussion with clear inferences and actionable steps.
"I collaborated with Kajal to define my strengths, desired branding, and career goals. Her insightful questions helped distill my thoughts on strengths, areas of opportunity, and aspirations. I highly recommend her for career goal refinement and journey mapping."
- PALLAVI, DIRECTOR IN HEALTHCARE
Kajal went above and beyond, showing great patience, to make sure she addressed all my questions and concerns.
As a career changer looking to break into the tech field as a software engineer, Kajal's insights and suggestions were immensely helpful. She's fantastic!
