Supporting the world on growth and decarbonization

I joined McKinsey because I wanted to do meaningful work and immerse myself in an environment to learn and grow. I always thought I wanted to be a doctor when I was growing up, but later realized I wanted to experience different industries and deliver lasting, sustainable impact. During my time at the firm, I have worked across many industries; I’ve particularly enjoyed working in healthcare and energy where I’ve helped clients adapt to and solve some of their toughest problems.

One of my best experiences at McKinsey was working with an energy client to help define its strategy. The company had bold ambitions to grow to create value for its stakeholders and a commitment to decarbonize its business. We helped the client understand the market dynamics and what might happen in coming years as the industry decarbonized. Using this understanding, we articulated the different paths the company could take and how each would contribute towards their economic and sustainability aspirations. This helped us to quickly determine which strategic moves were no regrets and which were bigger bets our client would need to take.

The most rewarding part of this for me was witnessing the client’s eureka moments when understanding new insights about the market. This meant the client executed on the strategy we crafted together and understood how it and its peers were positioned to make effective strategic decisions for the future. As someone who is passionate about energy transition, I’ve found working with clients on growth and decarbonization very exciting.

My journey at McKinsey has just started, and I look forward to opportunities to make a lasting difference.
