About Ben
Hi everyone! I am a recent graduate from UVA, where I was the head TA for "Intro Management Consulting" (as well as Microeconomics and Macroeconomics), a Consulting Recruitment Mentor, a Mentor for the Economics Career Office, and the owner of a small business focused on athletic coaching. I love helping people achieve their goals and would love to help you out as well! I was recruited into Economic Litigation Consulting for my internship but found myself missing out on the client experience, so I successfully pivoted into Management Consulting where I will be starting at Oliver Wyman next year. At UVA, I taught over 300 students, so I have extensive experience getting people to where they need to be. I'd love for you to be next!
Why do I coach?
I coach because I could not have gotten where I am without an extensive network of people helping me out. I know not everyone has the same opportunities, so I want to help others get to their goals just as I was helped!
