Grant has helped clients get into these companies:

I left consulting to join a startup men's athleisure brand and build their wholesale business from the ground up. In addition to running the wholesale business, I also helped the company with talent acquisition and building out their hiring strategy. Navigating roles at a ~20 person company requires a unique skillset relative to almost any other job in your early career. I have seen firsthand what startups are looking for when hiring, as well as what it takes to thrive in an early stage company role.

About Grant

Born and raised in Ohio, I grew up in a community that didn't share big dreams and often promoted becoming a future "townie." I went to a public college in Ohio to save money and worked tirelessly for 4 years to land a job at Bain & Co after graduation. Using the skills I learned at Bain, I left to lead the wholesale business of an emerging men's athleisure brand for 1 year. I have since returned to Bain where I hope to impact companies in the retail space before starting my own brand.

Why do I coach?

No one makes it alone. I have had countless mentors throughout high school, college, and my career that have shaped my experience and helped me achieve my goals. But the real reason I love coaching is the potential to change someone's trajectory. Based on factors outside of my control, it was highly unlikely that I would crack an industry like consulting with a top firm out of college. I want to help people (especially when the odds are stacked against them) navigate career paths that they may not have easy access into. Being part of the journey that unlocks growth in others has been one of the joys of my career. I jump at every formal and informal mentorship / coaching opportunity because of the deep satisfaction of seeing someone get "unstuck" or have a breakthrough working toward their goals.
