Meet Our Career Coaches
A Network That Cares
Founding Partner & COO at Marto-HG Digital Asset Group
“I love opportunities to give back to our next generation of leaders. Focusing on experiential learning is a pivotal step towards shaping graduates who are marketable, efficient, and results-driven. Under Sara’s leadership, the Experience Lab provides a fast track for students to land careers in their dream industries. As a mentor, the experience provided me with fresh insights on what Gen Z and Millennials desired in potential employers, and new freelancers for me to hire for entrepreneurial ventures that I am involved with. This truly is a win-win opportunity!”
Sean Go
Founding Partner & COO at Marto-HG Digital Asset Group
Human Resources Director at Penserra
“When Sara approached me to get involved with Experience Lab, I just knew I had to say, ‘Yes!’. I’ve found that when I’m enlisted to teach and share my experience, I learn just as much from those I’m aiming to help. As an industry partner with Experience Lab, I’ve gained so much perspective on the strengths and struggles that recent or soon to be graduates are facing. The students of Experience Lab are exceptional individuals and professionals, and I love the feeling that I’m helping to shape the leaders of tomorrow.”
ASHLEY HANDEL
Human Resources Director at Penserra
Vice President of Marketing and Information Technology at Central Restaurant Products
“Today’s workplace is dynamic and wanting to work in the “business world” has endless possibilities. Young professionals can find themselves in a “catch-22” – not knowing what they want to do in the business world and not having the experience to help make decisions on their path. Experience Lab can help provide some clarity on that next step. I chose to participate as I have benefited from a career pivot. I am in the position I am today because of a culmination of experiences and educational opportunities that helped me explore my interests and develop expertise. There is no set pathway for a career in business. It’s more of a choose-you-own- adventure and Experience Lab helps students navigate that process.”
NAT NORRIS
Vice President of Marketing and Information Technology at Central Restaurant Products
Marketing and Partnerships Specialist at New Dawn Global
“I’ve been working in Marketing ever since my first internship at 19, to me, Marketing is life. I feel it would make so much difference to someone if they could receive guidance and inspiration at the beginning of their marketing career, and I would love to be the person who makes that difference. While job search could seem challenging at times, the possibility is unlimited. There is so much to look forward to in the journey of marketing, and the keys here are to follow one’s passion, realize one’s potential, and how they could contribute to a business, industry, and the world. For that reason, it was my honor to join this program, taking up the role of communicating and coaching the graduates.”
