When I met Leo, I was at a crossroads, unsure of which university program to choose and feeling lost. He helped me identify my strengths, values, and qualities, guiding me toward a career path that felt right for me. Though my journey was far from linear, Leo taught me that failure can be a part of the path to success and, more importantly, that persistence is key. His encouragement and wise guidance, especially during moments of discouragement, were invaluable. Leo's ability to truly listen and offer undivided attention made me feel supported and understood, and his insights and patience provided me with the clarity I needed to move forward with confidence. Thanks to his support and guidance, I successfully got into the program I had aimed for. Now, as a recent graduate, I’m proud to be working in the job I once dreamed of!

I had the opportunity to work with Funke early in my career, and I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. Beyond my job responsibilities, Funke was genuinely invested in my growth. She frequently offered advice on how to be more productive, which inspired me to bring renewed energy and a strong sense of ownership to my daily tasks. Even after I stopped working with her, Funke continued to be a mentor, regularly checking in and offering guidance as I navigated my career path. In fact, I landed a current role at Vitract Inc due to Funke's mentorship. I highly recommend Funke to help drive the growth you’re seeking, whether you're just starting out or feeling stuck after many years in your career.

He was very helpful in guiding me through the MBA admissions process and essays. He was extremely friendly, and I highly recommend him!

I worked with Jonny for interview prep at a time where I felt overwhelmed, unsure where to even begin. Jonny guided me to a place of confidence, where I felt strong in my own abilities to go into my interviews. Jonny is patient and thoughtful, helping me form connections in things I was saying that I wasn't initially seeing myself. Jonny is a pleasure to work with and has an ability to make something stressful for me feel enjoyable and fun. I have since recommended him to several friends who all share similar stories of Jonny kindly guiding them to places of clarity.

I worked with Corey when I was trying to decide between a career in Investment Banking or Consulting. He was able to help me chat through the pros and cons of both career paths, potential future exit opportunities, and what skillsets are needed to thrive in each field. My conversations with Corey helped me make the pivotal decision to move forward with Consulting but if I had decided to move forward with the IB route, Corey would have been my coach of choice to land an offer!

Courtney was so helpful in my transition from performance marketing to product marketing. She helped me understand the core skills a PMM needs, pointed out what I could transfer from my past experience, and highlighted the gaps I needed to address. She also gave me clear advice on how to adjust my resume to better fit PMM roles. Given how complex and varied product marketing is, it was really helpful to have someone like her, with experience at both big and small companies, guide me through the process.

Ian is extremely kind, and his coaching is top notch. Navigating a career transition has been tough, but Ian has made it so much easier. Couldn't recommend enough.

I never make significant life decisions without consulting Ian. His candid, thoughtful approach ensures you're making choices for the right reasons—a task that's far from easy. Ian is one of the most authentically curious and insightful people I’ve ever met. With a remarkable ability to distill complex ideas, rooted in both experience and deep knowledge across many subjects, he brings clarity and calm to any situation. If you have the chance to talk to him, take it. You’ll come away better for it.

Blake is an incredible person to work with for any career related coaching. He is the person in my network who I find to be the most thoughtful in the space of all things job related and I have relied on his advice throughout a few transitions despite the fact that I am not in the private equity space. He has helped me revise my resume, prep for interviews and weight job opportunities as I looked to transition. His analysis is thoughtful and I find his advice to be insightful but also kind.

Blake helped me go from 0 to proficiency in less than a month when I started my private equity career with no prior experience. His models, templates, and - most importantly - his thought process were all so easy to understand. Blake has an incredible gift at explaining not just HOW to do something, but WHEN and WHY you would want to do it. As a result, I was able to immediately apply the methods he taught me, and learned even more nuanced principles of finance along the way. I would enthusiastically recommend learning from Blake!
