Richard helped me develop my skills and made me aware I had the "right stuff" to accomplish my goals. He encouraged me when I needed and helped me focus where needed. I found Richard to be a role model to aspire to and a coach to help me succeed.

Richard is a perfect candidate for ANY coaching position. He has a world class temperament, is highly motivational, and a great role model for personal discipline, ambitious effort, and developing a moral and productive character. You honestly can't do better.

Richard is a wealth of experience and thrives when mentoring and teaching. He has a way to relay anything in a manner that anyone can understand.

Stephen is an incredible teacher! He helped introduce me to consulting spending many hours giving one on one guidance. He led my team on one of my first consulting projects and was an excellent leader but he was also not afraid to jump into the work himself.

Ryan is incredibly knowledgeable about investments and was a great mentor to me at Berkeley, especially in financial economics. He genuinely cared about students, always engaging with us and making complex topics easier to grasp. Beyond the classroom, he was generous with career advice and always willing to help. His mentorship and support meant a lot to me.

I have worked with Ishu as he has supported and nurtured over 10 people so far to get into universities of their choice. He has a very detailed and personalised approach - helping one find the right course/school, supporting them in drafting their personal narratives and refining their writing styles. Given the depth of his network across fields, he's well versed with application processes of various universities, along with a knowledge of profiles that different universities like to build and support. Ishu will nudge you be to reflective, critical and vulnerable, helping you bring out the truest version of yourself in applications, and maximising your chances of getting into a college that aligns with your purpose and goals.

David is an incredible coach who asks the right questions early on. He helped me reflect on how to position myself for success during VC interviews & which aspects of my experience to highlight. He's a gifted advocate who takes time to educate you on how hiring managers think. Definitely an asset, especially for folks looking to break into tech of VC.

Stephen was an incredible coach who was instrumental to my success in landing a job at Deloitte. He was great to case with and provided clear specific and easily actionable feedback that could be used to up my skills. He also was willing to talk recruiting strategies that helped me to position myself in the best way I could. I can’t thank him enough for his help!

Stephen did a great job helping our consulting team with both case prep/analysis as well as presentations. He has particularly strengths in coaching others in executive presence and helping consultants to put their best foot forward.
