Naya
Hi, there!
I am Naya Bermudez, and YOU are here because a) you want to know more about who I am or b) you want to take your career to the next level. Whichever your case may be, you came to the right place. So, grab your cup of [insert your favorite drink here] and enjoy the ride (or the read, I should say).
Let’s tackle the conventional intro first. I am a business development and investor relations manager. I started working on Wall Street in 2016 as an investment banking assistant and now I spend most of my time helping companies tell their equity story. I earned an MBA in Finance and Sustainability from Fordham University and act as an Advisor for the Fordham Investor Relations Association.
Ok, that’s too formal. So let’s skip to the fun stuff!
Let’s work together
As a career mentor, a certified in-company trainer, and a professional speaker, my goal is to identify your areas for improvement, elevate your strengths, and bring your best professional persona forward so that you can forge a happy and fulfilling career.

Testimonials
“
Depois de 12 anos trabalhando na mesma empresa, fui desligada e me vi sem direção. Uma amiga me recomendou a mentoria da Naya e foi a melhor decisão que tomei naquele momento. Naya transformou meu medo em meta e em menos de um mês após o início da mentoria, eu já estava empregada novamente.”

“
Naya’s Mentoring Program was a turning point in my career. I was discouraged about the future of my career, but Naya was able to re-purpose my entire professional history. She taught me how to use storytelling strategies to tell recruiters the best version of my experiences. After Naya’s program I gained so much confidence that I got a new job right away. And not only that, a year later I was able to negotiate with the firm for my relocation from New York to Miami. Naya, I can’t thank you enough!”

If there's one thing I'm a sucker for when it comes to work, it is practicality. In a job that praises "multitaskialism" (yes, I just invented that word), finding ways…
What sets Naya Bermudez apart as a mentor?
Naya’s expertise in multiculturalism is her differential. Naya uses her extensive experience working at international companies and with people from different nationalities as a framework to build or strengthen your career path. As a fluent Portuguese, English, Spanish, and French speaker, Naya has produced a wealth of knowledge and a solid methodology for building an international career.
What’s the difference between mentoring and coaching?
Although mentors and coaches utilize similar techniques, the main difference is that the mentor has a more fluid and flexible influence over the mentee. The mentor advises, suggests, provoques thoughts, and asks chagellening questions aimed at guidining the mentee through his or her problems as a means to help the mentee find answers. A coach exercises stronger influence over the mentee's decisions, and may tell a mentee exactly what to do in a situation, and thus a coach bears some level of responsibility for a mentee's goals and outcomes.
Who is the mentoring for?
Recent graduates, career switchers, young managers, and anyone seeking to explore and define career goals highly benefit from partnering with a Mentor. Mentoring is also indicated for those who feel happy at their current jobs and are ready to take on new challenges and explore new ways to make an impact through their work.
What is the methodology used in the mentoring program?
The most important tool in a mentoring process is the Mentor’s life experiences and professional journey. Naya will use her path as a guide through which you can create your own path. In addition, Naya uses neuro-linguistic techniques to help you realize hidden treasures of your professional persona and analyses such aspects in connection with your short and long-term goals.
How long is the mentoring program?
The mentoring program is 8 to 10 weeks long, and sessions typically occur once a week. On-demand consulting services are 1h-long sessions usually booked in increments of two sessions.
How to hire Naya’s services and what payment methods are available?
The first step is to join a free 30-min call where Naya will gather your interests and goals. Next, parties will sign a services agreement and a term of confidentiality. Accepted forms of payments include ACH, Wire Transfer, Venmo, Paypal, and all major credit cards.
