I had the pleasure of knowing in working with Samar as here mentee then later has her colleague. She is amazing at what she does. She consistently showed up for me and other students with a bright attitude and splendid demeanor. She have support when needed and always made in effort to meet us where we were. The summer I spent in her program literally transformed my life and I wouldn’t be where I am today without it. She instilled confidence in me to keep pushing well beyond what I thought I was capable of. She truly is a one of a kind coach! Her influence pushed me to pursue my PhD at Stanford School of Medicine , Postdoc a very prestigious and well known Pharmaceutical company and now I am working a very dynamic and exciting biotech company.

Harkirat is one of the most thoughtful and effective PMs I’ve worked with—and honestly, an even better PM coach. He has a rare ability to break down complex product problems into simple, structured thinking, while still keeping a sharp focus on user value and business impact. During his time at Resy, he developed a deep intuition for how great consumer products are built—balancing data, design, and real-world user behavior. That experience really shows in how he approaches product decisions and how he teaches others to do the same. He doesn’t just talk theory; he brings practical frameworks and real examples that actually stick. On a personal level, he’s been incredibly generous with his time and guidance. He’s helped me think more like a PM—even when I wasn’t one—by pushing me to be clearer in my thinking, more structured in my approach, and more intentional about outcomes. A lot of the way I approach problem-solving today is directly influenced by him. If you’re looking for someone who can both build great products and level up the people around him, Harkirat is exactly that.

I had the unique opportunity to create a role from scratch with Melinda throughout my college career. Working with her weekly consistently pushed me to learn and be comfortable asking questions. If it was not for my experience with Melinda professionally, I would not be where I am today. She gave me the opportunity to develop professionally while being my mentor academically. I’ve always felt supported and known that if I need someone to guide me towards my next steps, Melinda will be that person. Even after graduating, Melinda has helped me craft my path to next steps. I could not recommend her with higher regard! She is kind, understanding, and constantly pushing those she mentors to grow.

Even when she’s not explicitly giving advice, Cathryn radiates motivation. I’ve always felt she had a natural ability to see my potential and reflect it back to me - almost like holding up a mirror and showing me what I’m capable of. Guidance she’s given me have helped me a) overcome a fear or public speaking - being on a stage is something I used to dread nut now look forward to; and b) hold the power of my individuality with pride. I would recommend Cathryn as a personal and professional consultant in half a heartbeat.

Chantal would be an incredible coach for anyone. She is thoughtful, insightful, and exceptionally generous with her time and advice. She takes the time to truly understand each person’s unique goals and needs, and tailors her guidance in a way that feels both personal and actionable. What sets her apart is her ability to be straightforward in the best way. In a world where people are prone to hedging, she communicates clearly and directly, bringing clarity to complex decisions and saying what needs to be said with the intention of helping you move forward. She’s an outstanding thought partner and someone you absolutely want in your corner. She truly helps everyone be the best version of themselves.

I had the pleasure of working with Samar during the 2018 SSRP program at Stanford, where she served as Program Coordinator. She was consistently thoughtful, engaging, and deeply supportive of everyone in the program. Samar created an environment where students felt welcomed and motivated, and she was always willing to go the extra mile to ensure we had a great experience. Her ability to connect with people and foster a positive, collaborative atmosphere really stood out. Her influence during that program played a meaningful role in shaping my academic path, ultimately contributing to my decision to pursue a PhD/MBA at MIT. I’m grateful to have been part of a program she helped run and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and impactful mentor.
