"Chris has been the mentor I never knew I needed. For a long time, I believed that having a stable job and things going smoothly would naturally lead to growth. But I didn’t really understand what growth meant for me personally. Chris helped me define that. He’s played a huge role in helping me clear the mental clutter, figure out what truly matters in my work, and see where I was overextending myself on things that didn’t need that level of stress.
Every conversation with him leaves me with something valuable, and I genuinely look forward to our chats. Being in the same field, he’s helped me understand how to become a better engineer, and even more than that—how to think about work in a way that aligns with both my personal goals and my team's impact.
He truly cares. When I’m going through a tough time at work, I know I can always count on him. Even a quick email to him gets a thoughtful response, and his support never feels performative—it’s genuine and grounding.
One thing I especially appreciate is how he holds me accountable in a healthy, empowering way. For instance, he encouraged me to maintain a tracker of my accomplishments, which made me more intentional about what I work on and how I contribute. It’s simple, but it motivates me to create value, both for myself and for my team.
When I feel overwhelmed—especially recently when I’ve had to juggle both engineering and managerial responsibilities—he always knows how to help me prioritize and see the bigger picture. His advice isn’t prescriptive; he guides me in a way that helps me realize what’s truly important. And that’s the best part about having him as a mentor.
To anyone in the early stages of their career: I can’t emphasize enough how valuable it is to have a mentor like Chris. I’ve been going to him for guidance for over a year now, and the difference in the impact I’ve created—both for myself and for my team—is night and day compared to the time before. The clarity, focus, and confidence I’ve gained through his mentorship have been transformative. Chris is not only incredibly insightful but also one of the kindest, most thoughtful people I’ve had the privilege to learn from. I feel genuinely lucky to have him in my corner."

"I had five one-hour sessions with Christopher where he helped me prepare for a software engineering technical interview. In the first session I explained to him my coding capabilities and which areas I wanted to improve. During the next sessions he helped me improve every aspect that I wanted to improve with leetcode questions and mock interviews. His approach to coaching was very helpful to me, especially the play by play part at the end of the mock interview. Thank you so much Chris for helping me and I highly recommend this service to anyone looking to ace their next software engineering interview."
