As the father of an international student, I could see how the American college admissions process was scary, difficult, and stressful for my son. He was struggling to write all those essays, and honestly, we didn’t even know where to begin. A friend recommended Lila, and it was one of the best decisions we made throughout this whole process. What stood out immediately was how she actually listened. She didn’t hand my son some generic template or tell him what admissions officers wanted to hear — she spent time understanding who he really is, what he’d been through, and what made him different. The essays that came out of their sessions felt like him, not like something written by a committee. Beyond the writing, she helped him understand the logic behind the whole process — how to approach the school list, how to think about fit, what actually matters versus what we thought mattered. For a family navigating this from abroad, that clarity was invaluable. My son was admitted to his first-choice school. I have no doubt that Lila played a real role in that outcome. If you’re an international family feeling overwhelmed by this process, I’d recommend her without any hesitation.

Prerak is one of the smartest people I know. He has consistently performed outperformed his peers throughout college, medical residency and now as a professor at Stanford. I could not think of anyone better to guide students.

Joe has been a great sparing partner.

Emily helped me interview prep when I was looking for a new product role. She helped improve my confidence and gave me a lot of good tips on how to best express my stories!

This was back in 2022 when I was actively searching for a new PM role in tech. She was highly knowledgeable about the company’s interview process, with experience from both perspectives. Gave clear, relevant insights and answered all my questions. I felt a lot more confident after working with her and would recommend others who are job searching in PM to work with her.

Ben was instrumental in helping me transition from service into my dream MBA programs. He went out of his way to help me throughout the process!

I had an amazing experience working with Emily when I was looking to work with a PM coach. She really helped me level up my understanding of product strategy in a way that actually clicked. By breaking things down clearly and by also pushing me to think more critically and independently. Her guidance was thoughtful and very practical. When we were talking through product decisions, frameworks, or real world scenarios, I always walked away with something I could immediately apply to my next interview. On top of that, she is incredibly helpful on the career side by offering honest advice, helping me think through my goals, and giving actionable feedback that made a real difference in how I approach my growth. Super knowledgeable, supportive, and just genuinely great to learn from!!!

Emily is an exceptional coach who is caring, understanding, and is quick to recognize my personal coaching needs. Emily has conducted several product sense and product execution mock interviews with me and gives insightful feedback every time. Because of her patience and expertise, I was able to land my dream job as a PM at Meta! Thanks to you, Emily!

He is very brilliant and knows he's work.

Varun was such a great help in my search and preparation! Getting into BCG was easier with his help and consulting industry knowledge!
