Warm Welcome!

I am Amy Chou. I have been coaching and mentoring individuals throughout my 20+ years in the tech industry as a peer, a manager, and a senior leader. I am excited to dedicate myself full time to coaching starting in 2024.

I am a woman of color. I am a mother of 2 girls. I am a wife. I am an immigrant. I was a senior leader in prominent tech companies, and I am now a solopreneur. These distinct identities all contribute to who I am, what I value, and how I show up as a coach and human.

Personalized 1:1 Coaching

I focus on creating a judgment-free safe space for private 1:1 coaching sessions that allow us to fully design our engagement based on YOUR goals and needs including:

Defining what career success means to YOU, and designing an action plan to accelerate your progress.
Building confidence and advocating for yourself to gain the recognition and promotions you deserve.
Building personal brand, and improving communication with manager & stakeholders.
Recruiting a 'village' of supporters (mentor, sponsor, champions..) who can speak up and advocate FOR you.

What My Clients Say..

"The coaching session with you was enlightening, uplifting, and empowering. Thank you for helping me see my own strengths and potential! Because of you, I went into my job interview today and rocked it! You helped me feel more confident in my skills and career decisions- thank you so much, Amy.... it was so empowering and life changing for my life. Being a first generation professional in a corporate setting is difficult- thank you for helping me realize and see the difference between “surviving” and “thriving.” With your help, I realized that I was merely “surviving,” and now I am going to work towards “thriving” in life." - BW

" - EM

"Our sessions were very helpful. It gave me the confidence to reach out to people again and to be more mindful of how I maintain those relationships. I have made a goal of reaching out to one person a day over the next week for informational interviews." - NB

"This was my very first coaching session during this stage of my career (mid-point) and I don’t know if it was supposed to be as smooth and effortless as it was because I am supposed to feel lost and do not. I feel more confident with a sense of direction. Not lost anymore for the moment. Most importantly, you followed up at the end of our meeting and asked what you gained from this meeting and what action items you are going to do as a result." - RAP
