About Purnima
I’ve spent years interacting with people from all walks of life, across professional and personal contexts in New York and U.S., India, and far beyond, which has widened my perspective to different nationalities, economic backgrounds, and cultural-exposure levels. I bring a rich understanding of people's real circumstances and limits, paired with the belief that anyone can grow beyond them with sincere effort and quality guidance. A lot of this empathy arises from first-hand growth, so the human element & connection is a core part of my coaching process.
> I hold an M.S. in Computer Science from NYU's prestigious Courant Institute, backed by 7+ years of professional experience across Amazon (New York), Goldman Sachs (NY HQ), and JPMorgan (Mumbai/Global).
> Having lived in New York and operated across global hubs—including London, Mumbai, Singapore, Bangalore, San Francisco—I have direct, stress-tested experience with critical communication across international, cross-border/cultural teams.
> I bring real-world exposure to help you build native fluency, pronunciation, and the personal confidence to handle various personal situations, and the professional articulation for career growth, leverage & lasting success.

Ms. Purnima is an excellent counselor who understood my interests and guided me with amazing clarity. Her inspiring words helped me to achieve my goals in a realistic manner.
Purnima helped me prepare for my US student visa interview at very short notice. I received a rejection for my F1 visa at my first attempt.. so my parents and I were very anxious before my second try.. since I needed the visa urgently to travel and join the course the next week. Everything else before joining was already taken care of so this pending interview was a big source of stress as it could break those plans if it went badly again. Purnima helped me prepare for the visa officer interview... gave me helpful tips on how to explain my previous rejection and communicate my points confidently, especially since I am shy and reserved. Most of all, she reassured me in time by giving me the right mindset and approach!! I got my F1 visa approved that day and joined my university the following week. It was such a stressful period of my life, but now i am about to graduate soon!! Thanks Purnima for all the help
Purnima is very natural at business communication and interview preparation!
She helped me navigate difficult hiring manager rounds and offer conversations for US-based roles, coaching me on precisely what to articulate and communication approach, how much to reveal and how to project confidence. All this mixed with her spontaneous humour xD
Her guidance turned an intimidating process into a clear, actionable sequence.
Would recommend to students and working professionals in need of sharp English skills.View more recommendations
