Jeff is a gem gifted to this world. I was having a serious mid-career crisis and I couldn't see the road ahead of me at all. Jeff answered my desperate LinkedIn DM and offered to hop on a call with me. Jeff was extremely helpful and kind and provided me with a very meaningful conversation, I was amazed by how a 2-hour call with someone could unclog my dreadfulness that has lasted for over a year. Jeff, you're one of the reasons why people still believe:) It warms my heart to know that someone like you is always out there looking out for us<3

Jeff instantly made me feel so comfortable and open to share whatever I was struggling with. Jeff is a great listener who tells you things that you need to hear while delivering it gently. My favorite thing was that he gives actionable advice and realistic next goals. I especially loved when he used examples that he knew I could relate to and was so personable throughout the entire conversation. I also admired the way we were able to structure the conversation and Jeff ensured that I had no remaining doubts or questions left. After my conversation with him, I got much more clarity and hope with my next steps and I highly highly recommend talking to Jeff!

Going into the call, I was feeling really anxious about post-grad plans. But Jeff was so kind and created a welcoming space for me to talk about it. Although it was only a one hour call, I felt so seen and heard by the end of it! I left with a huge smile on my face. I really appreciated the reassurance. I really needed it. I felt like I could breathe again. Thank you so much Jeff!

I've heard a lot of overlapping advice from different sources, similar to his North Star analogy, but hearing him speak so candidly on his personal take made the advice resonate a lot more rather than feeling cliché. Really appreciated the talk!
Jeff had one of the highest degree of EQ out there and was so generous with his advice and insight. I recommend him to students, new grads, and career transitioners to have as one your of networking connection and call, if not the first.
