About Kevin
After a decade in management consulting (Bain) and venture capital (GSV Ventures), I recently decided to pursue a dream job as a college water polo coach at Stanford. On Leland, I get to blend my background in management consulting, venture capital, and business operations with my passion for coaching. I'm thrilled to help my clients grow and ultimately thrive.
Why do I coach?
Coaching is a calling for me. Few things give me as much energy as helping others reach their God-given potential.
