Having been mentored by Sergio for the past two years, I can confidently say he has been instrumental in advancing my career. His guidance and expertise, particularly in the field of consulting, are exceptional. Sergio was the first to introduce me to consulting and has consistently provided invaluable resources and support. His relentless work ethic is both inspiring and motivating. His ability to balance multiple projects while maintaining a high standard of excellence is truly impressive. Sergio embodies the ideal qualities of a coach: strategic yet patient. The remarkable work he accomplished as President of the Buffalo Undergraduate Consulting Group is further testament to his dedication and energy. Anyone fortunate enough to be coached by Sergio Sandoval will undoubtedly achieve great results. I wholeheartedly vouch for him without hesitation.

I met Collyn while undergoing the interview process for my first full-time medical device engineering role. Collyn generously offered his invaluable insight into the interview process, guiding me to nail the interview and receive an offer that I ultimately accepted. Without Collyn's support and advice, I would not have landed my ideal industry position. Thank you so much!

Having known Sergio for several years, I can say with confidence that it is hard to find a mentor like him. From the moment that I expressed to him my interest in consulting, he has exposed me to multiple opportunities, dedicated free time to prepare me with case studies, and continues to inspire me everyday with his impressive dedication to the field. Sergio is not only an outstanding professional coach, but also an exceptional friend and teammate who makes everyone feel heard and understood.

I approached Rohan to help me give the right structure for my applications, and he has been extremely valuable in taking the time to understand my background, create a structured plan for the whole process (which definitely reduced my stress,) and giving me a lot of feedback every step of the way. Rohan brings a lot of experience and understanding of what admissions teams look for and I highly recommend working with him.

As someone who has worked on projects and case competitions with Sergio in the past, I would wholeheartedly vouch for him as a consulting coach. His drive to uplift others, as shown through his leadership roles including the presidency of the Buffalo Undergraduate Consulting Group, is truly inspiring. Sergio's extensive experience and dedication make him an invaluable asset to anyone seeking guidance in the consulting field. I am confident that his insights and support will greatly benefit anyone fortunate enough to work with him.

Grant has been a friend, mentor and advisor for me for well over 2 years. From our first time meeting, I was inspired by his motivation and frameworks he has learned from others that he not only applies to himself to be successful at whatever he sets his mind to, but to also share with others for their success. Our friendship has grown into one where Grant is one of my first calls when I want to talk through an issue or problem, he has my complete trust, and I have found myself seeking out more people in my life, like Grant, with his focus on bettering himself as well as those around him. Grant is one of the greatest people I’ve ever met in my life and can be an amazing coach, building off years of accomplishments, self improvement and love of people.

Sabrina is amazing! She was incredibly helpful throughout the consulting recruiting process and as an advisor as I think about business school in the future. She is not only incredibly accomplished but so supportive of my goals and helpful when offering well-thought out answers to my questions. I'm so, so grateful to have worked with her and know she will continue to help many others achieve their goals as well.

Sergio was a key component in helping me secure my consulting internship at EY-Parthenon. His insight into the process, interview style, and the firm played a pivotal role in my landing the offer. His ability to provide feedback on my cases and behavioral mocks was exceptional. His genuine transparency and thought put into each coaching comment helped me improve meeting after meeting. I cannot recommend Sergio enough!

Vanessa is highly empathetic and takes the time to understand your individual goals. She's quite accomplished but does the rare thing of turning around to offer others a helping hand. There's no one else I'd recommend walking through the business school application journey with. It's challenging on so many levels, intellectually and emotionally, but Vanessa's ability to supply individual steps to help you achieve your goal is something I wish I had when I applied. She's also a people person, so even on the hardest day, she brings positivity and light to keep you motivated. She's helped me navigate a highly matrixed organization to help further my career, and I couldn't be more grateful to call her a friend.

Carolyn and I worked together at a social enterprise in Kenya. Since then, she's become an excellent thought partner - when I go to Carolyn with a question or need for advice, either personal or professional, I trust that she will lend an empathetic and discerning ear. She is thoughtful and kind, yet doesn't hesitate to challenge your perspective or thinking. She challenges you to expand your outlook, which has been incredibly valuable to me as I made critical career decisions about whether and ultimately where to pursue an MBA. Her diligence and professional rigor has continuously inspired me. I'm starting an MBA in August 2024 and credit Carolyn for helping pave the path to this opportunity.
