Management Consulting Coaches, Events, and Resources

I bring a real-world, no-nonsense approach to management consulting built on years of experience working across military, government, private, public, and nonprofit organizations throughout the country. I have helped organizations navigate complex transitions, improve operations, and make better strategic decisions in environments where the stakes are high and mistakes are expensive. My work has directly contributed to companies saving millions of dollars, eliminating inefficiencies, and getting leadership teams aligned when things were not working. I understand how organizations actually function under pressure, not just how they look on paper. My background reflects that depth. I hold a doctorate in coaching and a second doctorate in organizational change and leadership, along with an MBA and a master’s in project management. I am also the author of Who’s Got Your Six?, which focuses on accountability, trust, and making better decisions when it matters most. But more importantly, I know how to apply all of that in the real world. I am not here to overwhelm you with theory or corporate jargon. I am here to help you see clearly, challenge what is not working, and build practical strategies your organization can actually execute.

Hello and welcome to my profile! With a rich background in management consulting, including my time as a Consultant at Bain & Company, I bring firsthand experience in navigating the competitive consulting landscape. My academic journey through prestigious institutions like Harvard, Berkeley and HEC Paris has equipped me with a robust understanding of business strategy and entrepreneurship. As a former member of the admissions committee, I have a keen insight into what top programs and firms are looking for in candidates. Whether you're preparing for case interviews or refining your application materials, I'm here to guide you every step of the way. Let's connect and craft a strategy to help you achieve your consulting career goals!

Expert in healthcare and life sciences consulting work with provider, payors and medtech clients. Successfully navigated the recruiting, application, interview and onboarding process for multiple management consulting firms.

My five years coaching at NYU Stern opened my eyes to the consulting recruiting process. From identifying firm fit and behavioral interview prep, to offer negotiation, I have supported students to land their dream roles at McKinsey, BCG, Bain, Deloitte, EY-Parthenon, and more. My approach blends strategy with positive psychology. I don’t just help you polish your resume and cover letter — I help you show up with confidence, clarity, and a compelling narrative that’s true to you. If you’re looking for a coach who understands both the rigor of recruiting and the resilience it takes to land one of these spots, then I would love to work together.

With a background at McKinsey & Company, I bring a firsthand understanding of what top-tier firms look for in successful candidates. Having sat on both sides of the table, I have mentored and cased dozens of aspiring consultants, helping them navigate the complexities of the recruitment process from initial networking to the final partner round. My coaching focuses on more than just the mechanics of casing; I provide the structural frameworks and "firm-side" insights necessary to demonstrate the executive presence and problem-solving rigor required at the highest level. Whether you are refining your mental math or mastering the fit interview, my goal is to help you build the confidence and clarity needed to secure your target offer.

I successfully broke into Bain as a non-business major at a non-target school. Having just gone through the consulting recruitment process, I understand exactly what it takes to succeed at every stage. I have both given and received over 100 case interviews while mentoring friends and peers, and I am deeply familiar with the behavioral interview process, storytelling, and building strong connections with interviewers. I now joined Leland to work with ambitious students who want clear, structured, and practical guidance across every component of consulting recruiting, from casing and fit to confidence and communication!

I joined Bain as an Associate Consultant and stayed until I became a Manager. In the meantime, I managed to get transferred twicce (from Dubai to Los Angeles to Washington DC) and get sponsored to study my MBA. My global and long-term experience at Bain has helped me understand the ins and outs of consulting. I have used this experience to help applicants (including my MBA peers) get offers at Bain & Company.

I have extensive experience with consulting case prep and behavioral interview practice. My clients have landed internships and full time offers at MBB and other top strategy consulting firms.

Consulting can feel like a black box until you’re in it. After nearly a decade at Deloitte, I know what it takes not just to land an offer, but to succeed once you’re there. I help candidates demystify the recruiting process, position themselves effectively, and understand what consulting firms are really looking for. While I can support case prep if needed, my focus is broader: helping you articulate your value, communicate with confidence, and show up as someone firms want on their teams. For those already in consulting, I coach on how to thrive inside the firm—building relationships with partners and clients, navigating tough projects, and charting a path toward promotion (or knowing when it’s time to pivot). Whether you’re trying to break in or make the most of your experience once you’re in the door, I’ll share practical insights and candid advice to help you succeed.

I'm a dedicated coach with a strong background in management consulting, particularly with MBB firms. I have extensive experience both as a consultant and as a mentor, helping aspiring consultants navigate the challenging application process.
