I help undergraduates, recent graduates, and professionals navigate the consulting job market with a focus on landing roles at top firms like McKinsey, Bain, BCG, and beyond. With over 4 years of experience in coaching, including my background on Bain’s interview team, I provide strategic, personalized support to help clients stand out and succeed. Here’s more about my background: Former Consultant and Interviewer at Bain & Company — reviewed 500+ applications, interviewed 30+ candidates, and developed a deep understanding of what top firms seek Passionate about Supporting Non-Target School Students — I specialize in guiding clients on networking, positioning for interviews, securing referrals, and building a compelling application Comprehensive Expertise — Case interview mastery, behavioral interview prep, resume/cover letter refinement, and strategic networking guidance Proven Success — Clients have earned offers from Bain, BCG, McKinsey, ZS Associates, LEK, and other industry leaders Education — B.A. (Honors) in Economics from Stanford University I’m committed to being a full “partner” and "peer" to my clients, offering a highly customised, non-judgemental and robust coaching process: I assign targeted exercises and homework to maintain progress and strengthen skills Each coaching plan is tailored to meet each client’s background, career goals, and specific target firms I’m available over email, phone, and the Leland platform, ensuring ongoing support throughout the journey and beyond I incorporate real Bain interview cases to give candidates an authentic feel for the consulting interview process Whether clients work with me long-term or just before a major interview, I adapt my system to meet diverse needs and career ambitions.

Why do I coach?

Coaching is not just a profession for me; it’s a deeply personal mission rooted in my own experiences as an international student and a member of a diverse community. Navigating the consulting job market can be daunting, especially for those from non-target schools, underrepresented backgrounds, or without established networks. I know this firsthand. When I embarked on my journey as an undergraduate, I faced significant challenges. Coming from a background where few had entered the prestigious world of consulting, I lacked both the network and the insights needed to navigate this competitive landscape. As a Black student in an environment where there were not many like me in firms like McKinsey, Bain, or BCG, I felt isolated and uncertain about my path. However, I was fortunate to find mentors and coaches who saw potential in me and provided invaluable guidance. They helped me refine my skills, build my confidence, and navigate the complexities of interviews and networking. Their support was transformative, and it opened doors I never thought possible. This experience instilled in me a profound appreciation for mentorship and the difference it can make in someone’s life. Now, I’m passionate about paying that support forward. I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to achieve their career aspirations, regardless of their background or the challenges they face. Coaching allows me to empower others, particularly those who might feel like outsiders in the consulting industry, to recognize their worth, build their skills, and connect with the right people. Through my coaching, I aim to create a supportive environment where my clients can thrive. I tailor my approach to each individual’s unique experiences and goals, ensuring they receive the personalized guidance they need. I draw from my extensive experience, both as a former consultant and an interviewer at Bain, to provide insights that can help my clients navigate the consulting hiring process with confidence. Ultimately, I coach because I believe in the potential of every individual. I want to be the mentor I once had for those who might be feeling lost or unsure. My goal is to help them not only secure roles at top firms but also to cultivate the skills and networks that will enable them to thrive throughout their careers. Together, we can break down barriers and pave the way for future generations of diverse talent in consulting.
