Miles has a history as a successful applicant with both employment and education, and does an excellent job sharing what has worked for him. He was fantastic at approaching the application process holistically, and teaches you how to sell yourself as a candidate.

Miles has a customer-first approach to supporting others, enabling him to be an extremely successful coach. I’ve worked with Miles during his time in undergrad as he developed Cardinal Consulting, where I saw how he partnered with students to support their journeys towards consulting. Miles would make an excellent coach on Leland, and it would be troubling for him to not help others through the Leland platform.

I was lucky enough to work with Kimberley at Northwestern University and to witness her professionalism, expertise, compassion, and deep knowledge of the admissions landscape. Kimberley's experiences at highly selective universities have given her an incredible perspective for anyone going through the application process. Not only has she been in the room for admissions committees and decisions, but she has actually driven reading/review strategy, giving her even deeper insight into how schools think.

Helena is an ambitious go-getter with the big picture perspective necessary to help you weave a more nuanced MBA application. The countless hours she invested into her own journey to B-school is evident from an initial coaching session, and it’s this deep level of insight that makes her expertise worth every penny. Coming from a background of being the first in my family to navigate the grueling graduate application process, Helena served as the ideal in-the-know mentor, equipping me with the tricks of the trade I wouldn’t have discovered otherwise. If you’re in a similar position, consider having a successful coach in your corner to be your biggest asset. This is the top way to set yourself up for success throughout the application process–by learning from and standing on the shoulders of someone like Helena who’s already made the journey.

Highly recommend Matthew as mentor and career coach. From day 1 of meeting Matthew in orientation at BCG to seeking his help as I navigated career change, he has been kind, patient, and always incredibly helpful 😊

Brianna was an amazing support system throughout my internship journey. From the recruiting process to navigating the role itself, she was always available with valuable advice and encouragement. Her consistency and genuine care stood out—she checked in often and made sure I felt prepared every step of the way. Anyone working with her is in great hands!

Excellent and patient coach in getting my admissions for Veterans done. He understood the value in my naval experience and helped tell my story to get me admission to Dartmouth, Yale and USC! All of these colleges had different prompts, and he assisted in prompt selection, and telling strengths coming from a veteran background.

Carlos was an incredible coach throughout my business school application process. His guidance was instrumental in helping me craft a compelling personal statement, and his support on my essays brought out my authentic story in a way I couldn't have done alone. Thanks to his help, I was accepted to Harvard Business School. Carlos is thoughtful, strategic, and genuinely invested in his clients’ success. I recommend him highly for anyone looking for advice to get into top business schools.

Brett is exceptionally talented but most importantly, does not shy away from sharing his knowledge, cool tricks and for that matter, how to ace PM interviews at Amazon or otherwise. How often do you see people willing to help others and encourage others to achieve their dream!! In my opinion, those who do like Brett are angels from above.. words fall short for me on how immensly helpful and incredibly kind Brett has been to me ( a complete stranger) in giving me such wonderful, concrete and actionable pointers for presenting myself, my resume, showcasing my professional journey etc. I wish Brett all the very best in this venture of his and vouch for him, whole heartedly!

Ellin played a key role in my HBS admission. Her thoughtful feedback on my essays, guidance throughout the process, and interview prep made a huge difference. On top of that, her support and availability were incredible — she was always there when I needed. It was truly a great experience working with her, and I’d 100% recommend Ellin to anyone applying to a top MBA program.
