About Me
I’m a leadership and professional development coach (ICF-certified PCC) with an MBA from INSEAD and an MA from Johns Hopkins SAIS, bringing over 15 years of experience in global finance and technology. I’ve held leadership roles and advised senior stakeholders at organizations such as Goldman Sachs, RBC, and Manulife, as well as at high-growth startups in San Francisco and London. Today, I coach executives and senior leaders across industries, helping them navigate high-stakes decisions, transitions, and complex challenges with clarity and confidence.
Throughout my career, I’ve led teams and partnered with leaders across Europe, North America, and Asia. I work with high-performing professionals at pivotal moments—whether they’re stepping into bigger roles, driving organizational change, or seeking greater alignment between their values and their work. My coaching focuses on executive presence, influential communication, navigating career crossroads, and building a sustainable rhythm between work and life.
I founded Base Pace on the belief that leadership growth shouldn’t come at the expense of wellbeing. True leadership is grounded in self-awareness, intentional action, and momentum that aligns with what matters most. I partner with clients to uncover their strengths, stretch their perspective, and move forward at a pace that’s both challenging and sustainable.
I believe coaching should be creative and fun. As a coach, I hold the coachee as naturally creative, resourceful and whole. My job as your coach is to ask thoughtful questions, listen and empower you to bring out the skills and creativity you already possess and to help you to get moving in whatever area you want to see progress, at a pace that works for you… I will help you find your base pace. If this is what you are looking for, let’s talk.

"Aliya did a great job of helping me gain clarity on what I valued in a career transition, what was holding me back, and how to move forward in my search for a meaningful career... I went into the conversation feeling stuck and overwhelmed with choice, and came out of it with a clearer view of where I want to go and the steps needed to get there. Everyone needs Aliya in their corner!"
