Gelila is absolutely incredible! It goes without saying that she’s one of the most accomplished technical recruiters in the industry, but she’s also a fantastic mentor and community builder. I’ve worked with Gelila both as a candidate for a startup job as well as her partner to grow a fantastic entrepreneurial community. She genuinely cares about the success of everyone she works with and goes above and beyond to help them achieve their career goals. Highly recommend Gelila for all things technical recruiting, career coaching and community building!

I am beyond grateful for Ben’s help. His support and guidance made a significant difference, and I am incredibly thankful for all the time and effort he invested in helping me. His assistance was invaluable, and I couldn't have done it without him. He really took the time to break down my college essays and help me edit and improve them.

Michael is detail-oriented. He remembered details across different components of my profile to point out gaps despite limiting his review to once/twice per component. Very responsive and flexible. He actively followed up to check in the progress. Overall, happy with his coaching!

Ben was by far the most useful asset to me when I applied to college. His writing expertise combined with his ability to tangibly explain what admissions officers are looking for make him a highly valuable mentor. He’s considerate, open to questions, and extremely flexible with his time. If you’re looking for a college mentor, Ben is the person!

Ben's grasp of the modern undergraduate admissions process and his ability to turn rather mundane topics into compelling narratives makes him stand out in an industry that has powerful storytelling as its essence. Augment these abilities with his work ethic and easy-going personality, and I think you've got the formula for a stellar admissions consultant that everyone could benefit from. Having worked with Ben on academic, personal, and professional projects over the last 5 years (and sharing an alma mater), I can say with 100% confidence that if you're looking to get seriously great admissions results, Ben's the guy you want helping you at every step of the way. Beyond admissions, Ben's also an incredibly empathetic individual and detailed listener, often providing refreshing and astute insights that provide value beyond just the application. If you get the privilege of working with him, you'll realize he prompts deep introspection, a rarity in today's admissions scene. He will push you to clarify your story, values, and future goals, things that span far beyond the scope of college and will benefit you at every step of your life.

Ben helped me out with studying and preparing for the SAT recently. He was a phenomenal tutor with a lot of experience in teaching in general, and it really showed. Above all else, he was really kind and explained things really well.

Benjamin is extremely well versed in admission knowledge to University. Upon meeting Benjamin at Duke University, I enlisted him to help my friend from high school get into Duke. Benjamin was excellent in his capabilities, and several students from my high school have been accepted to elite universities because of his thorough dedication to college admissions consulting. I vouch for Benjamin in the highest degree.
