Abby is an amazing writer and thought partner. She helped me restructure essays and improve them significantly. On top of that, she is incredibly kind. Applying to grad school is a stressful process--Abby helped minims that stress both by keeping me organized and lending a listening ear. Our work together let me put my best foot forward in my grad school applications.

Alex and I attended Hamilton college together and overlapped in San Francisco for a year. He presents a calm demeanor, deep intellectual curiosity, and forms strong personal connections with those around him. I’ve received many useful career pointers from him over the years and think he’d make an excellent advisor / coach.

During my application for the Schwarzman Scholars program, Michael's feedback was really critical in making my short essays stood out, which ultimately helped me landed the fully funded scholarship. Following my conversations with him, he guided me to identify my unique personal story, link my experiences to impact, and make use of each element of my application to connect to the core visions of the program. I would not have truly considered applying to the program without his encouraging words. Not only does he have a strategic mindset, but he also made me believe in my success.

Milton has provided me invaluable advice and support as I began my career in investment banking and think about the next stages of my career. He thoroughly reviewed my resume, offering insightful feedback that significantly improved its quality. His suggestions helped me better highlight my strengths and achievements. Additionally, Milton shared his extensive industry knowledge, offering practical advice on my career trajectory. His willingness to share expertise and provide constructive feedback demonstrates his commitment to fostering junior professionals. I highly recommend Milton as a career mentor and advisor.

I worked with Alex closely during our time at Goldman Sachs IBD together. He was a great mentor to me during that chapter of my career and continues to be someone I can reach out to for questions whenever I want to chat through next steps in my professional experience. I think Alex would be an invaluable addition to the Leland community as he has a lot of experience re breaking into finance and making a pivot within finance (from BoA to GS and from healthcare to TMT to recruiting from IB to growth equity/private equity), but is also generally a tremendously thoughtful and kind individual who is eager to help others!

Lipi is an empathetic coach who helped me prioritize what I wanted to focus on next in my career and life. I went from feeling overwhelmed and not sure where to start to having clear actions and a path forward to the career I wanted. Lipi creates a safe space in every session with her and was a great source of encouragement when I needed it.

Met Milton my last year of college, and since then, he's been a great pillar in my personal growth. Anytime I seek guidance, in my career or personal life, he's always willing to give me sound advice. In these past 7 years, I can say this mentor has become a friend. I am happy I have someone like him in my corner and hope many others can experience this.

Jon is a great leader, coach, and mentor. His strong product management skills allow him to focus on the problems to solve and identify solutions that create value. While working with him I saw him navigate various obstacles with grace and humility. He was always a great thought partner and an advocate for his team and peers. I have no doubt that his prior training and experience will make him a great coach for future leaders.

I have known Priscilla ever since high school. Her workflow, time management, and persistence to excel beyond her classes carried her through to become accepted at one of the most renowned universities in the country. Priscilla has been one of the most supportive people that I have known. Her knowledge and people skills has made her a great conversationalist to give insightful guidance to help one help make the best career decision for themselves. As a close friend to Priscilla, she has helped me get through difficult times and is willing to always lend an ear to let my voice be heard and understood. I do not know where I would be right now if it was not for Priscilla.

Michael’s understanding of the consulting frameworks tested in interviews is unparalleled. His Bain consulting experience and coaching expertise will not only help you receive an offer, but also excel within the role.
