Derek is an amazing mentor, he was instrumental to me landing my banking role and is exceptional in providing preparation for the buyside. He shares his wealth of knowledge from his years of experience in both the buy-side and sell-side, and his guidance has been invaluable. Truly a great mentor!

Nick was absolutely instrumental in helping me transition from consulting into a product manager role at a high-growth aviation tech startup. Not only did he provide high-level career guidance on working as a product manager, he took the time to help me craft my resume to truly standout in an extraordinarily competitive market. Throughout the entire process, he always provided sage guidance and genuine empathy to make sure I was successful. If you want to transition to a product manager role and need a coach that can get you there, Nick is absolutely the best coach you could ask for!

Ruthie is incredibly knowledgeable about the law school admissions process and understands what qualities top schools are looking for in an applicant. She gave me great advice on creating my list of schools to apply to and how to leverage my strengths in my essays. I credit Ruthie with all my admissions success, and would recommend working with her 100%!

Ruthie is knowledgeable, patient, and consistent. What sets her apart is the way she combines deep expertise with genuine care for her students. Her insights are grounded in real-world experience, and she knows how to translate that knowledge into clear, practical guidance at every step of the admissions process.

A very reassuring and effortlessly compassionate person, navigating delicate subjects with the poise intelligence and care of someone truly dedicated to helping. She remains one of the most consistent and knowledgeable personal regarding admissions consultation I have ever come across. Naturally I would hope to keep communications with her for the duration of my collegiate process!

I first met Manish at a career fair at a UVA dorm hall, where he was a resident advisor. Immediately, Manish was able to guide a conversation where I was not only able to think through potential career paths, but also a conversation where I learned a lot about myself and what motivates me. Manish is empathetic, knowledgeable, and a person who is happy to help others. From that first conversation, Manish and I caught up on a weekly basis and he'd continue to push me to think critically about my decisions and be strategic in my career. As a student entering the university setting, I felt choice paralysis on what to explore and where I should be building my experiences. Rather than encouraging me to optimize for career drivers (power, money, impact, influence, etc), Manish took the time to understand me and explore what I found as my intrinsic motivations for a successful early career and life broadly. Fast forward three years, and Manish continues to give great advice and is someone who I will continue to call my mentor. I highly recommend Manish to those who are hoping to build a career that is true to them and their goals. He also gives great personal life advice.

Will has been an exceptional coach to work with. Thanks to him, I've strengthened my resume, enhanced my storytelling skills, become a competitive interview-taker, and navigated my internship search and application process effectively. As a result, I both landed and completed a Natural Resources internship at a prominent park system in the Twin Cities metropolitan area, successfully. Being coached by Will has, without a doubt, been vital to both my personal and professional development during my last years in college.

I had the opportunity to work with Papa Kojo Botsio for the first time in 2020. During this period, I was particularly intrigued by the confidence he reposed in me to supervise his students or scholars with their school applications. Apart from working for him, I also benefited from his great mentorship when I was ready to send in applications for my postgraduate studies during the periods of August 2024 to April 2025. Through his exceptional guidance, I have gained admission to five of the universities I applied to. Papa Kojo is indeed a calm but firm voice of encouragement and guidance for all seeking counsel on their careers or further studies.
