I was a fellow in the inaugural HeadStart Fellowship class. Meeting Oba legitimately changed my life. Coming from an immigrant household where I had no family in corporate America let alone finance, Oba was the perfect mentor to help me not only see the kinds of roles I could aspire to, but also lay out the roadmap to get there. I can confidently say Oba was a key part of me landing all 3 of my summer internships. I was also privy to his GSB application process; can confidently say it was surgical and the methodologies can be replicated well by any clients.

Oba is incredibly committed to mentorship and helping those around him grow. He has a real passion for figuring out the best strategies to facilitate this commitment, and has a proven track record.

Working with DeVol was an incredible experience. He has a real gift for listening and asking just the right questions that make you think and come up with your own solutions. That’s what stood out the most to me, he doesn’t just give you answers, he helps you grow by guiding you to find them yourself. As an international student, he also helped me better understand the culture, reflect on where I was, and get clear on where I wanted to go. He really helped me define my goals.

Alexander has been tremendous helping me as a coach as I looked into major new career next steps. He is a great listening, resourceful, shares his resources and deep knowledge so freely. I am so glad to have met and worked with him. Top recommendation!

Eric helped me so much through my law school apps and later in law school. He knew just how to help me put what I was thinking onto paper in a way that law school admissions readers would appreciate!

Working with Alexander was a really valuable experience. He helped me reflect on my strengths, prepare effectively for interviews, and improve my CV so that it better reflected my profile. He always had the best attitude and was consistently available and willing to help, which made a big difference during the process. His advice was thoughtful, practical, and always tailored to my situation.

Leslie, with her extensive experience in resume reviews and career transitions, offers valuable advice and provides clear, actionable instructions for improvement. Her expertise helped me elevate my resume in today’s highly competitive job market.

DeVol has an extraordinary ability to listen carefully, deeply and giving meaningful advice specifically tailored to each individual's needs. He is inclusive of other's emotions, feelings, perspectives and backgrounds. I had the pleasure of working with him in many different settings: one of them involved a pro-bono consulting project for a technology startup in Africa, where he was able to provide both excellent technical business recommendations as well as connect deeply with the team to understand their daily struggles. DeVol is a complete professional and I would highly recommend him to whoever needs a superior coaching experience!

Shani would be an amazing admissions coach on Leland! She served as the advisor for my student organization and she offered her full support and advice to the group. Despite having a full time job and a long commute between work and home, she offered her time and gave us the space to talk through things, which was essential to the organization’s growth and success. She has always been a huge advocate for student success and belonging; she really cares about each individual that she works with, and I know for a fact that she would positively impact this community too.

Bashiru was huge asset in me landing a job with my preferred employer. He helped create an innovative profile through his expertise in communication and networking that aided me in my job search. I trust his judgment and leadership skills he provided. Highly recommend.
