FOR ACCOMPLISHED PROFESSIONALS
Switching To Data
You've worked hard to get where you are.
You're good at what you do.
People respect your expertise.
And yet, every time you think about moving into data, you feel like you're starting from zero.
Like none of what you've built counts.
But that feeling is lying to you.
You've probably done some version of this:
Bookmarked three Python courses.
Started one.
Stopped after week two because you weren't sure if it was even the right thing to learn.
Spent an evening on LinkedIn comparing your background with people with data science degrees and thought: maybe this isn't for me.
Applied to a data role that looked like a maybe.
Never heard back.
Told yourself you weren't ready yet.
It's not that you lack discipline.
It's that nobody has told you what actually matters for someone with your background, and what you can skip entirely.
That's exactly what I do.
I'm Lina.
I made this transition myself, and I've helped dozens of professionals do the same.
I have a background in physics research working at labs across three countries, published work, experiments built from scratch.
I've been selected as an Expert Evaluator by the EU Research Executive Agency, contributing to over €7M in Horizon Europe funding decisions.
I've been invited to speak at UNESCO headquarters in Paris on AI and technology. I've had a TED-Ed lesson reach 1.4 million people.

VIEWS ON TED-Ed
I know what it means to operate at a high level. And I know what it feels like to look at a career pivot and wonder if everything you've built is suddenly irrelevant. It isn't. But you need someone who understands both worlds to show you that. I've worked with professionals from engineering, finance, research, consulting, and beyond. The framework works because it starts with your specific background, not a generic template.
Switching to Data is for you if
✓ You have significant professional experience and want to move into data without starting from zero
✓ You're tired of consuming content and want someone to tell you strategically what to do next
✓ You want personalized guidance from someone who has been on both sides: deep technical expertise and a real career pivot
✓ You're ready to invest in a clear, focused strategy instead of figuring it out alone for another year
✓ You believe your background is an asset and you just need help proving it
This is not for you if
✗You're looking for a quick fix or a magic bullet
✗ You expect someone else to do the work for you
✗ You prefer generic advice over a strategy built around your specific situation
Change is not a threat, it's an opportunity.
Embrace the power of data to transform your career.

Testimonials
Rebecca Rinehart
"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! I could not recommend working with Lina enough!"
Data Science Student NYU
Lucia Otero
"Before working with Lina, I was struggling to get any responses — no interviews, no calls, nothing. 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."
Data Scientist
Martina Matusko
"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."
