Some Words From Current and Former Clients
Ben is a calm yet powerful coach. He knows just the questions to ask to help me see what I haven't been able to see on my own. He holds the space for me to really go deep into my own thoughts. Being coached by Ben is such a powerful experience.

Ben's coaching was spectacular and eye-opening for me. Ben was patient and really listens to everything I have to say and allows me to see a different perspective. I felt very stuck in my tech career as an application engineer for at least 7 years and was worried about my interview with Big A. I was also very indecisive and worried about my career options in general. He helped prep me for my interview but most importantly, helped me with my roadblocks, anxiety and procrastination issues in my career, guidance I could have not received anywhere else. I ended up getting an offer for a job I never thought I could get for a company I never thought I could work for. Most importantly, I gained more confidence and had more direction in my tech career. I don't think I could find better career mentorship anywhere else. I highly recommend Ben to anyone who is feeling stuck in their career, wanting to break into tech and wanting to improve themselves in the job function they are in. My job is a big part of my life, being able to get coaching from Ben allows me to understand myself more and make small tweaks so that I could have a more fulfilling career in tech. I highly recommend Ben's coaching because its a form of self-improvement for your own career.

I was a Systems Administrator/Systems Engineer wanting to break into a career in tech with a role more focused on DevOps. Ben helped coach me on what qualities are desirable in the tech industry and helped me find things about myself that were valuable to potential employers. Ben helped prep me for interviews and I ended up getting an offer for a job that I absolutely love. I'd recommend Ben to anyone trying to break into tech or anyone just looking to improve themselves professionally. Can't recommend him enough.

Just as the best doctors center the thoughts and needs of all of their patients, Ben sets the standard for listening, understanding, and validating the needs of his clients. With so many issues crossing boundaries, such as the challenges mental health may present in professional work, this ability often can be the difference between success and failure. In my own case, Ben helped me move from a panicked junior engineer to someone that has the courage to tackle increasingly large problems.

“Ben and I have met up around 2 hrs/week for the past month. It's been an incredible journey together. Ben is extremely wise and knowledgeable in the tech area and also has great mentorship abilities. I made a lot of progress in getting my first job and also learned a lot about motivation and procrastination. I'm excited to continue to build a stronger relationship and continue to get valuable insights towards reaching my goals.”
