Sonal Rinello
Chief Marketing Officer at Hello Guru
I am Co-Founder & CMO of Career Guru. I am a Strategist & Marketer whose career includes client service, strategy and marketing roles at PwC, Avon, and L'Occitane en Provence. My start in management consulting at PwC focused on advising retail clients assessing branding opportunities and new growth avenues to drive revenue. This experience led to a global strategy role at Avon where I drove development of global category and local market strategies, priorities and implementation plans with senior leadership. My passion for the power of beauty then took me to V.P. Marketing positions at L'Occitane En Provence and Doctor’s Dermatologic Formula/Proctor & Gamble. I have since taken on a variety of diverse marketing projects for clients including Pepsi, Deutsch Family Wine & Spirits, IFF, and local businesses. B.S. Aerospace Engineering, University of Illinois; M.B.A. Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University.
