”Thank you so much for insight and advice over the past few months. Your thought provoking questions and gentle guidance are like jiujitsu for my career – they challenge me while making it seem like my own idea! You turn weaknesses into strengths and challenges into opportunities. Your ability to reframe issues and sense my gut intuition without even having me say it is uncanny. You’re like a career Genie that grants three wishes! And all of this is grounded in solid academic theory and research that you know so well, and incorporate into your advice and analysis, without seeming too technical or academic. On top of all that, you are a kind friend and a true guide. I look forward to working with you on a regular basis going forward.”
