Meet Lina - Your Strategic Guide
I made my own transition from research scientist with a PhD in Physics to the data industry, and now help others navigate the same journey strategically.
Why I created Switching to Data: During my own career transition, I wasted a lot of time and was full of confusion and doubts about how to make the pivot successfully. After finally figuring out the process, I created the framework that has now helped dozens of professionals successfully apply it in their own career transitions. I realized that most career switchers waste months applying randomly instead of strategically, just like I did. I developed my proven framework to solve this exact problem and save others from the confusion I experienced.

Testimonials
Working with Lina changed my life in a huge way, it gave me the opportunity to get hands-on portfolio project experience, which boosted my data science skillset and helped me get into a master’s program in data science! She encouraged me to pursue what interested me, and provided guidance on how to make my own goals for the project happen. Lina is such a joy to work with, and always made sure I felt comfortable and heard. I could not recommend working with Lina enough!
Rebecca Rinehart
Data Science Student NYU
Before working with Lina, I was struggling to get any responses — no interviews, no calls, nothing.
I was sending out resumes that didn’t make sense for the jobs I was applying to, and I was applying for jobs that didn’t make sense for me either. Working with Lina showed me I had far more strengths than I realized and taught me how to approach and work on my weaknesses. When we started working together, she asked if I needed a job immediately or if I could wait three months or so. I thought it was crazy, that seemed like a long time.
But I was committed to making this transition and decided to be patient. It was the best choice I could have made. After three or four months, I had a brand-new résumé, a portfolio, a cover letter, a few job offers, and a new job. I was able to choose the job I wanted, not just what I thought I could get.
Lina is warm and approachable, standing by me through my darkest moments when I started to lose faith in myself, and celebrating my accomplishments with me.
If I had to go through this journey again, I’d certainly do it with her. Thank you, Lina!

The mix of skills Lina brings together, being an exceptional scientist, having strong social abilities, and a real talent for understanding people, is everything a good coach needs. This combination of skills is rare, and she is one of the few who truly has it. I’m very grateful for the chance to learn from her. One last example of her excellence is that she hasn’t just helped me in our conversations; I often remember her words in all kinds of everyday situations because she taught me lessons for life!
