About Our Founder

During Covid, David was asked by a few of my friends to provide career guidance to a few of their friends. The sudden and major disruption in our lives caused a number of people to reevaluate their careers, companies, and jobs. During these sessions, he found myself really enjoying working with new people — people he had never met and who lived all over the US — and helping them solve their work challenges.Siena Career Coaching was founded to help others navigate the corporate world to find a role they are passionate about and a company that they care about. He has seen a lot in his career — great bosses that have become mentors and friends, people he stays in touch with long after leaving the company, ineffective management, negative company cultures, and everything in between. Career coaching is a way for him to give back and make sure future professionals find success and avoid pitfalls.

David Carvel has spent his career working his way up the corporate ladder, primarily in the healthcare industry. He has experienced the grind of product management at large Fortune 20 companies and enjoyed the thrill of managing others as an executive at startups. He holds an MBA from Harvard Business School.
