I worked with Jose as a business coach in 2022 when I was at a pivotal place in my career. Jose helped me identify what I truly wanted for the next chapter of my life. His coaching extended far beyond the business world and he was able to help me identify patterns that were keeping me stuck not just at work, but in all aspects of my life. Thanks in no small part to Jose, I have a new job that is better suited to my life goals, healthier relationships with my loved ones, and overall clarity for my path ahead!

I have known Jennifer since 2022, first studying adaptive leadership, then coaching it together as part of the same team. Her valuable insights and unique approach to create critical thinking are particularly remarkable. The level of depth her contributions have, paired with a warm and empathetic personality, contribute immensely to the learning of her peers. I am adamant that her coaching skills would be a great addition to Leland's portfolio and to the clients that engage with her, as I witnessed first hand on several occasions throughout the past few years.

Jose has been instrumental in helping me navigate tough decisions during a challenging season, leading directly to over $100k in funding. His strategic insights, skillful language, and even direct outreach to funders have strengthened both my leadership and fundraising abilities. Jose is a tremendous asset wherever he serves, and I look forward to continuing our work together.

I've known Rouhin since our college years, and I wholeheartedly give Rouhin my strongest recommendation and support. For all these years, he's been a very good friend and mentor to me. His knowledge of finance, investing, and tech is unparalleled, and he's given me a lot of advice and guidance on how to navigate the world of investment banking, nail the technical interviews, and most importantly receive offers. On top of that, Rouhin is kind, supportive, patient, and is able to distill complicated topics into an easy-to-understand format. I would recommend Rouhin very strongly!

Amy is an absolute inspiration through and through. She’s talked the talk and lived it. Boss. Mom. Wife. Daughter. Immigrant kid. Cancer survivor. Teacher. Coach. I am grateful that the world will get to benefit from Amy’s great gifts, and lifetime of earned experiences as many of us have been fortunate to.
