I love my position with my new employer Bank of America and moved from Associate to VP. Trust me; you want a guy who spent 15 years on the Street to represent you. I hired Mike because he knows the Wall Street world inside and out. My original resume was very technical and did not fairly represent my skills. After he was through with his magic, all my skills were so clear on paper that I felt great. My revised LinkedIn profile attracted so many more hits as soon as I made the updates.

Mike helped me move from Fitch Ratings to MUFG Securities and taught me how the game was played. I knew Mike was the right professional for me. Empathetic and intuitive as a person and understood Wall Street back and forth. I enrolled in his comprehensive Job Accelerator Plan, creating a resume and LinkedIn profile that spoke to my hard and soft skills, to networking me into my top target investment banks. We mock interviewed to help me tell me the genuine story of my past and my future goals. He sped my job search by at least 3 months, sparing me the pain and agony of continue job search.

I had the pleasure of working with Mike as my career coach during a critical time in my professional journey. As a young energy professional, I was at a crossroads and needed guidance on whether to pursue an MBA or move to a new firm. Fortunately, Mike not only had an MBA but also came from an energy background himself. Our initial conversation was incredibly informative, and I quickly realized that Mike was the perfect career coach to guide me through this transition. In addition to helping me improve my professional profile, Mike challenged me to analyze my academic and career goals in ways that I had never considered before. His expertise and guidance helped me land several opportunities that I enjoy, with better pay and increased confidence in my abilities. Mike's approach is not just as a coach, but as a friend who is always available to offer support, guidance, and advice. If I ever face any major academic or career decisions in the future, I am confident that Mike will be there to help me navigate those decisions. I highly recommend Mike to anyone who is seeking the GOAT of career coaching! Furthermore, Mike's proficiency in data analysis, financial analysis, and strategic planning adds tremendous value to his coaching, making him an invaluable asset to anyone seeking to improve their career trajectory.

Mike understands that when he helps a client get a better job, he is really helping them improve the quality of their lives. His clients then have better family relationships, the conviction to do things like join boards, and a faster career trajectory to retirement. As a former bulge bracket investment banker, Mike understands the unique needs of sell-side professionals. Nobody can match his program to help you get the job you want.

Mike was instrumental in my successful job search and transition to a new role, which came with a significant bump in compensation and an increase in direct reports. He truly is a master at helping you brand yourself and navigate networking on LinkedIn. I'm grateful to have had him in my corner—his guidance made all the difference.

I am grateful to Mike for his guidance on my career progression, as well as his work on my resume and LinkedIn profile. I chose to work with Mike because of his deep banking industry expertise. His support and insight made the process seamless. If you're looking to make a career move, especially in banking, I highly recommend Mike—he understands the industry and truly delivers results.

I connected with Mike when he had some questions pertaining to a client he was working with that he thought I could help with. I was so impressed by his thoroughness that when I decided to attempt a different career path, I sought his services. He helped establish my online presence and brand in a way that no AI program could have. In less than 24 hours my partner and I were contacted by multiple contacts to discuss partnership opportunities. I will definitely seek his advice in the future when the need arises.

Mike helped me get to the greatest company in the world, Amazon (AWS)! Mike helps you figure out your career direction so you save time. I wanted to network with professionals that had certain technical certifications. Speaking to these professionals at the right firms helped my job search. Mike arranged coffee chats. He saves you time, a commodity more valuable than money.

Mike helped me land my dream job with Google! After 23 years with the same company, I needed a change but didn't know where to start. Mike helped me explore other careers by setting up coffee chats with friendly professionals.

Within 2 months of working with Mike, I moved from Wall Street to Salesforce. If you need to pivot, he is your guy. I was a very successful sales trader for 20 years. However, the landscape of Wall Street changed, and my next move was not going to be the same role since fewer and fewer exist. Mike and I worked on identifying the different types of jobs and industries that would be a fit.
