Our Team
Gina Engracia
I specialize in helping entrepreneurs navigate the complexities of their personal and professional lives with clarity and purpose. With a foundational approach that transcends diverse contexts and life stages, I have an extensive background spanning over 25 years in psychology and the spectrum of human potential.
Within my private practice, I collaborate with visionary startup founders, collectively driving ventures valued at over $50B, and alongside leaders of enterprises managing assets exceeding $300B. I also contribute as an Executive Coach at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and as a Facilitator for their esteemed Interpersonal Dynamics Course, aimed at enhancing emotional intelligence and influence.
I bring a collaborative ethos to my coaching, recognizing the inherent wisdom and potential within each client, influenced by my separate practice as a psychotherapist licensed in CA, NY & FL. My interests include singing, taking nature walks, and finding the best mangoes.
Diana Chu
I am a performance coach specializing in supporting entrepreneurs and investors. My blend of counseling psychology expertise and practical experience in entrepreneurial and investment environments positions me to address the nuanced challenges faced by leaders in these fields. The most rewarding part of this work is guiding founders/investors toward transformative growth, both personally and professionally.
As an Executive Coach and Interpersonal Dynamics Facilitator at Stanford University Graduate School of Business, I support MBA students and executives in advancing their emotional intelligence and resilience in leadership. Beyond coaching, I am deeply committed to supporting my community. I serve as a Board Member at Telegraph Hill Neighborhood Center and Portsmouth Square Garage, local nonprofits in San Francisco. Additionally, I am an active member of the Lotus Project Professional Advisory Board and Dear Community Advisory Board, working towards expanding assistance and engaging with Asian Americans and Asian immigrants. When not working, I love spending time with my Husky, Ella.
Ling Lam
I am a Lecturer in Management at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and an Executive Coach. At Stanford GSB, I teach two sections of the world-renowned Interpersonal Dynamics Course which integrates neuroscience research with experiential learning to help MBA students enhance their emotional intelligence, create more productive and collaborative relationships, and be more effective leaders. I also serve as a faculty member for the Interpersonal Dynamics for High Performing Executives at the Stanford GSB.
Before Stanford, I provided onsite counseling at Google for 10 years. I bring 20 years of clinical experience to my coaching work as a licensed psychotherapist with a Ph.D. in Psychology and MA in Counseling Psychology. Before becoming a coach and a therapist, I graduated with distinction from Stanford University with a BS and MS in Electrical Engineering, and was part of the original engineering team that invented the world's first HDMI chip. I love to walk, listen to podcasts and spend time with my cat, Frodo.
