Paras served as my career coach for ~1 year and I cannot thank him enough for the wisdom, advice, and guidance he gave me during that time! Paras helped me to navigate a large firm, think long-term about my career, and prepare for the MBA application process. I cannot recommend him enough - he is selfless, brilliant, and an absolute joy to work with!

Tracey has an exceptional mind for product. While working together at Spotify, I witnessed firsthand how she masterfully builds and executes complex product strategies, skillfully aligning a broad range of stakeholders. Even now, I continue to seek her advice and coaching as I advance in my career, especially while prepping for product interviews. Tracey is an incredible teacher, guiding others to think deeply and systematically about the problems they aim to solve, resulting in insightful and metric-driven solutions. She has significantly shaped my understanding of product management, making me a more effective engineering leader and cross-discipline partner. Her professional expertise, combined with her joyful demeanor, makes her an absolute delight to work with. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Tracey is an outstanding product leader, but above else, has been a key mentor for me as a product manager working on complex surfaces and user experiences. She's coached me on critical PM skills including: upward communication to gain leadership buy-in, building effective org-wide processes to manage execution, and developing a stronger voice in how I share my product thinking in a way that is confident yet open to iteration. I strongly recommend Tracey as a coach and general "person in your corner" given her experience and ability to mentor with empathy and grace.

Sandeep is brilliant and thoughtful. His natural orientation is to find ways help in all situations. His dedication, humility, and creativity have been an incredible asset to me as I navigated college admissions, early career choices, and continued career growth. I simply cannot recommend him highly enough.

Vaish has been a mentor to me from the first semester that I came to UT Austin, and to this day continues to teach me new things to better my academic, personal, and professional life. From giving me advice on majors/minors in college to connecting me with recruiters for internships to walking me through making my first ever budget to teaching me how to time manage all of my commitments, her guidance has been invaluable in my life and personal growth.

I have known Tracey since 2020 — we used to work in the same org, and over the last few months Tracey has been helping me transition to PM. As a mentor, Tracey supported me with both interview coaching and team selection to help me find a team that would be the right fit for a new PM. During mock interviews, Tracey provided extremely clear and concise feedback. I always felt like Tracey was rooting for me to succeed, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone who is looking for mentorship or coaching. I consider Tracey a key reason why I was able to succeed during this transition process.

Edwin was instrumental in helping me get admitted to my dream MBA program (GSB). He is thoughtful, thorough, challenging (in all the ways you need a coach to be to craft a compelling application), and a true friend and confidant in this crazy process. Work with Edwin! He will help you realize your dreams and unlock a world of opportunity ahead.

Nitish was a great mentor before and during college. He was always ready and willing to spend as much time as needed to accomplish the task at hand. Whenever I needed help with anything college or career related he took his time to carefully outline each step so that I was able to truly understand and learn from him.

I got Rohan's help with my master's essays for top HCI programs and got admitted to all of them. His advice has been extremely useful to make sure I convey the right content in the best way possible. Definitely recommend getting Rohan's help with your MS application essays.

Tracey believed in me at a time when I needed an opportunity and helped me transition into a new career in a field I was entirely unfamiliar with. She has such a gift for making even the tough parts of any task fun—and legitimately, genuinely cares about the people with whom she's collaborating. Her knack for knowing which fires to put out, and which ones to let simmer makes her an expert leader and efficient sounding boarding for any task. Any product becomes instantly better with Tracey's magic touch, and any manager I've had in the past decade since has had the unfair position of being compared to her. Anyone looking for mentorship would be lucky to learn from Tracey, and I feel extremely grateful to have gotten that chance.
