I bring over two decades of leadership experience spanning top-tier management consulting (BCG, Accenture), elite banking (Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley), and high-stakes government projects (including NATO and military partnerships). My expertise centers on driving change management, corporate strategy, complex program delivery, and financial transformation. What sets me apart is my ability to craft highly personalized, strategic roadmaps that elevate candidates' strengths and unlock hidden potential.
As a coach, I am dedicated to empowering and guiding individuals from underrepresented and underserved communities - those who, like me, have to navigate systems not designed for their success. My mission is to be the mentor I never had, turning my experiences into a bridge for others to cross toward success.

Prepare for interviews · Behavioral mock interview
James is phenomenal interview coach! He really goes above and beyond to prepare for each coaching session. If you have a specific company you're interviewing with, he'll make sure he does his research and tailor cases to work through realistic business problems those companies might be facing. If there is a specific skill or competency your interviewers are testing for, he'll extrapolate multiple questions to pressure-test your situational answer bank. He was also a great sounding board for questions to ask interviewers at the end of an interview. Thanks for rooting for me and helping to rebuild my confidence in interviewing! Book your sessions with James -- you won't regret it!

I recently had a career coaching session with James, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. James thoroughly covered all the points I outlined in my purpose for the session, ensuring every concern and question was addressed. What truly set this session apart was how James exceeded my expectations by offering additional valuable tips, such as enhancing my LinkedIn profile and networking strategies, which were incredibly insightful. His expertise and personalized advice have given me a clear direction for my career in finance. I’m already looking forward to booking another session soon. Highly recommend James to anyone seeking top-notch career coaching!

James was incredible to work with. I booked him only a day in advance and he was able to accommodate me. As a physics major, I am a beginner in this realm of business case studies, but that was not an issue for James. We worked on behavioral questions and a couple mock cases. He was great at giving feedback and just had really positive energy overall. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for practice, no matter what stage you are in.
