Management Consulting Coaches, Events, and Resources

As a Senior Manager at Bain, I have personally interviewed dozens of high-caliber individuals who got an interview slot. I've coached over a hundred people on how to navigate the management consulting interview process throughout my 6+ year-long career at Bain, whether that be resume editing, interview prep, or career advice. I have a deep understanding of the consulting industry and the skills needed to succeed. I also hold an MBA from Harvard Business School and a Bachelor's degree in Economics from Brigham Young University. I had no experience with consulting or case prep and applied to Bain because a friend said I should. My first practice case was with a Bain employee one week before my actual interview. Needless to say, it was a disaster. I called on all the resources I could to prep enough to make it in, and it worked! I want to give back to honor those who helped me through this process. I will give you my honest opinions and perspectives on both the amazing and difficult aspects of consulting. And happy to talk about your overall perspectives on life and what you want out of it! Feel free to reach out to discuss how I can help!

Hi there, and welcome to my profile! I’m currently an Associate Consultant at Bain & Company, where I’ve worked on 20+ due diligence projects for investor clients, from hedge funds to early-stage VCs. I’m passionate about diving deep into exciting businesses, uncovering growth opportunities, and brainstorming creative strategies for success. Getting here wasn’t exactly traditional—I tackled consulting recruiting with just two months of prep and ended up with offers from all three MBB firms, as well as private equity analyst programs. Now, I want to pay it forward. Through Leland, I’m here to be the resource I wish I had during my own journey through college, professional development, and full-time recruiting. Whether it’s navigating consulting applications, acing case interviews, or optimizing your resume, I’ve been fortunate to coach others through the process and would love to help you do the same. Feel free to reach out—I’m excited to connect and support you on your journey!

On Consulting Case Interview prep: I interviewed candidates for BCG. Furthermore, as a Recruiting Director for our Empower Program (a recruiting program focused on Black and Latinx MBA candidates), I was personally responsible for preparing ~15-20 high-potential candidates, and achieved a historically high admission rate. Throughout my time at BCG, I helped dozens of candidates coming out of undergrad and grad school prepare for case interviews.

After rigorous training on how to interview for the top-tier consulting firms, I ran over 140 case studies with peers to prepare myself and my peers for interviews. I am an incoming consultant for MBB and am able to help with both case study and behavioral interview preparation. I helped my coachees to land jobs at Bain, BCG, McKinsey, PwC, EYP, and more. I'm an expert networker and can help you curate a plan to approach your entire application and interview process, including working through an extended timeline to manage the process end-to-end.

Engineer turned consultant. Extensive experience with casing

I have helped over 100 students with consulting interview preparation, resume and LinkedIn reviews, and academic applications (deferred MBA programs, fellowships, etc.). I have specifically found a great deal of success in MBB interview prep, helping over 25 students secure MBB offers at a 93% offer rate. My coaching style is highly human-centric and personalized, as I use behavioral health techniques to train students on how to channel their brightness with concision, clarity, and creativity. In terms of credentials, I have been a Scholarship Admissions Interviewer at USC, the President of 180 Degrees Consulting at USC, a Co-Founder of the USC Consulting Consortium, a Founding USC Recruiting Lead at McKinsey & Company, and the CEO of Blue Modern Advisory, a Professional Mentorship startup.

As a Distinctive (highest performance rating) McKinsey EM, popular people leader, and core member of our recruiting team, I know what it takes to not only get into McKinsey but also perform at the top of your class. During my time at McKinsey I interviewed >100 candidates and sat in >20 decision meetings. I understand the difference between “good” and “great” and love breaking down the complex and opaque interview process into manageable - and even fun - prep work. I pride myself in being a great people leader and have coached countless MBA, undergrads, and experienced hires through successful interviews.

As a Consultant at Oliver Wyman, I bring extensive experience in resume screening, case prep, and interview coaching, having led undergraduate recruiting during our most recent application cycle. I was able to succesfully pivot from finance to consulting via prior internships in investment banking at Barclays and private equity at Trive Capital, allowing me to offer a well-rounded perspective to candidates looking to make a similar transition. I now specialize in digital, aviation, and financial services, delivering impactful strategies for leading clients. I’ve successfully mentored over 30 students, helping them secure positions at top consulting firms. Let’s work together to master your case interviews and land your dream job in consulting!

With offers from McKinsey, Bain, and BCG across both the U.S. and Japan, and a track record of helping candidates land offers at every major MBB office in the U.S. and Asia, I specialize in helping candidates break into top-tier consulting. I bring not just personal success, but institutional insight: I served as BCG’s North America Recruiting Champion in 2019, personally bringing in the highest number of experienced hire recruits across the region—a distinction that earned me a special bonus. I also led campus recruiting efforts at WashU, where I was directly responsible for the largest class BCG Chicago had ever hired from the school. From undergraduates to MBAs, I’ve coached 100+ candidates through every stage of the MBB process—from shaping compelling personal stories and acing case interviews to navigating final-round dynamics. I’ve worked with peers at Wharton, students at top undergrad programs, and international candidates navigating recruiting from both inside and outside the U.S. Beyond offer prep, I also bring insider perspective on how to build a long-term career at MBB. At BCG, I was part of the PIPE practice in the Dubai office advising Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds, which became the springboard for my later transition into finance. If you’re looking to stay and grow within the firm, or eventually pivot to PE, VC, or IB, I can help you strategically plan your path from day one. If you’re looking for proven, structured coaching to land a consulting offer—especially at MBB—this is the right package.
