Derek has been an invaluable coach and mentor to me for over three years. His deep knowledge of the finance industry, from investment banking to private equity, has been instrumental in my career journey. From helping me secure my investment banking internship to guiding me through the transition into private equity, Derek has consistently provided thoughtful, practical, and impactful advice. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking guidance from someone with extensive experience and expertise in finance.

During my time at Boeing, Jon served as my mentor in Business Operations and Project Management. As busy as he was with his projects and responsibilities, he would always find time to meet with me reguarly and provided valuable and genuine guidance/feedback. He helped shape me as a professional, providing insight into technical certification programs, introducing me to managers, directors, engineers and other professionals within Boeing. Jon would also make time to served in professional panels at the University of Washington School of Business, helping the next generation of professionals be better prepare to enter the workplace.

I am delighted to recommend Elijah as a coach! I first met Elijah during our MBA program at UCLA Anderson, where we worked together on several mission-driven initiatives, including the Riordan Mentorship programs supporting underserved undergraduate and MBA candidates. As Vice President of Net Impact, Elijah consistently demonstrated his ability to lead with purpose and inspire others to get involved in meaningful causes. Elijah is driven, collaborative, and excels at developing authentic connections. This was especially evident when he spearheaded the planning of UCLA Anderson’s inaugural Impact Investing Night, where he successfully brought together some of the most influential voices in impact venture capital for an evening of learning and networking with students. His leadership created an enduring platform for students to engage with industry leaders and sparked meaningful conversations around impact investing. What makes Elijah stand out is his ability to leverage his non-traditional background in educational fundraising to expand his network and advocate for causes he is passionate about. He brings fresh perspective, resourcefulness, and a genuine passion for impact venture capital that is contagious to those around him. I am confident that Elijah’s blend of empathy, leadership, and professional experience will make him an exceptional coach. He has a proven ability to guide others, build community, and empower people to reach their goals.

Derek is an amazing mentor, he was instrumental to me landing my banking role and is exceptional in providing preparation for the buyside. He shares his wealth of knowledge from his years of experience in both the buy-side and sell-side, and his guidance has been invaluable. Truly a great mentor!

Nick was absolutely instrumental in helping me transition from consulting into a product manager role at a high-growth aviation tech startup. Not only did he provide high-level career guidance on working as a product manager, he took the time to help me craft my resume to truly standout in an extraordinarily competitive market. Throughout the entire process, he always provided sage guidance and genuine empathy to make sure I was successful. If you want to transition to a product manager role and need a coach that can get you there, Nick is absolutely the best coach you could ask for!

Ruthie is incredibly knowledgeable about the law school admissions process and understands what qualities top schools are looking for in an applicant. She gave me great advice on creating my list of schools to apply to and how to leverage my strengths in my essays. I credit Ruthie with all my admissions success, and would recommend working with her 100%!

Ruthie is knowledgeable, patient, and consistent. What sets her apart is the way she combines deep expertise with genuine care for her students. Her insights are grounded in real-world experience, and she knows how to translate that knowledge into clear, practical guidance at every step of the admissions process.

A very reassuring and effortlessly compassionate person, navigating delicate subjects with the poise intelligence and care of someone truly dedicated to helping. She remains one of the most consistent and knowledgeable personal regarding admissions consultation I have ever come across. Naturally I would hope to keep communications with her for the duration of my collegiate process!

I first met Manish at a career fair at a UVA dorm hall, where he was a resident advisor. Immediately, Manish was able to guide a conversation where I was not only able to think through potential career paths, but also a conversation where I learned a lot about myself and what motivates me. Manish is empathetic, knowledgeable, and a person who is happy to help others. From that first conversation, Manish and I caught up on a weekly basis and he'd continue to push me to think critically about my decisions and be strategic in my career. As a student entering the university setting, I felt choice paralysis on what to explore and where I should be building my experiences. Rather than encouraging me to optimize for career drivers (power, money, impact, influence, etc), Manish took the time to understand me and explore what I found as my intrinsic motivations for a successful early career and life broadly. Fast forward three years, and Manish continues to give great advice and is someone who I will continue to call my mentor. I highly recommend Manish to those who are hoping to build a career that is true to them and their goals. He also gives great personal life advice.
