I have also worked with clients in the past applying to Master's programs in Computer Science, Business, Finance, and Public Policy.

About Cian

Columbia 2019 | McK Sr Asc | Schwarzman Scholar | Deferred Harvard Law. I'm currently a coach and a member of the Leland Strategy team focused on building out our awesome Leland+ product. Before, I was Schwarzman Scholar at Tsinghua University in Beijing. Prior to going to China, I was a consultant in McKinsey's New York Office for three years, working across the public, private, and social sectors. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Political Science from Columbia University in 2019 and have prior internship experience for the US Senate, PwC, and BlackRock. I have also been accepted to Harvard Law School and plan to defer admission until 2024. I am passionate about using basketball to connect with people across different cultures, finding the best restaurants in whichever city I am in, and inclusive, sustainable economic development. I'm super excited to support the next generation of leaders as they prepare for academic and professional careers that will create a positive impact in the world!

Why do I coach?

I love working with people who are motivated to improve their skills and position themselves to lead. Growing up, I was passionate about academic and professional achievement -- my parents played an important part inspiring me to launch myself into the echelons of universities and other institutions that influence the way our world works: from policy, to politics, to the economy, to innovation. But, I didn't have role models who had the familiarity with how these places worked (and how to break into them) that so many of my peers did. I want to level the playing field by sharing my institutional knowledge, skills, and passion with others looking to achieve at the highest levels.
