About Bryan
Hi there! I'm Bryan, a coach @ Leland and operating executive, investor, and startup nerd. I've built my career advising founders and senior leaders from Google to Seed to Series A/B/C startups. I previously served as Chief of Staff @ Forage, a startup on a mission to modernize the U.S. social safety net, where I led back-to-back fundraising and investor relations and built our sales, go-to-market, marketing, strategic finance, and customer success functions from scratch. I'm currently leading Business Operations @ Gigs, a startup that's building Stripe for Telecom. On the side, I'm a General and Managing Partner @ OAS, an independent, anti-disciplinary strategy practice that is equal parts consultancy, think tank, and venture fund. I've been the first checks in incredible founders @ Doji, MeAgain, and a couple other exciting startups, and advise generational clients like Discord, Netflix, Prada, and Chanel (among many others) on everything from brand strategy and go-to-market to cultural forecasting and insights. If you're looking for someone who can give you deep counsel, expand your network, optimize your CV, and craft a compelling personal and professional narrative -- I'd love to chat.
Why do I coach?
I wouldn't be where I am today without my coaches and mentors. Whether it's helping you understand your strengths (and weaknesses), connecting you to the right people, being as tactical as you need, or a shoulder you can lean on: support is critical to success, and I'm here for you.
