Bryan’s Career Coaching Qualifications
Experience level: Vice President
250+ people coached for Career Coaching
Open to working with clients outside the U.S.
I've been an advisor, mentor, and coach for hundreds of incredibly talented operators and builders like yourself - from college students and new grads to mid and senior-level professionals. As someone who straddles the line between candidate and hiring manager, I'm uniquely equipped to serve and support you. I'm experienced in resume reviews and interview prep, having been a hiring manager at Google (if that's your thing), in addition to various early-to-growth stage startups. I've landed and been head-hunted for dozens of roles, and can help you not only nail recruiting, but also be hyper-intentional and selective about the opportunities worth your time, energy, and resources. I'm also happy to talk all things career exploration, and help you map out where you want to go based on your strengths, weaknesses, and mid-to-long term personal and professional ambitions.

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.
