I\'m a Senior Executive Coach with the GK Training—a boutique communications training company serving Fortune 100 companies, universities, and individuals around the world. In that role, I help top professionals in asset management, law, pharmaceuticals, accounting, insurance, and advertising develop their skills in both written and oral communication.Recent clients include: an asset management firm with $340B AUM, a VP-level finance professional at a global top-five unicorn start-up, a US-based economist preparing to serve as an expert witness during a case in Asia, and the General Counsel and COO of a top-50 family office. I also coach PhD candidates at Columbia Business School for their job market talks, and have helped folks (in an admittedly small way) secure positions at MIT Sloan, Princeton, London School of Economics, Stanford GSB, London Business School, Imperial College, University of Hong Kong, and CKGSB, among others.In addition to coaching and leading group training session, I also serves as the company\'s Content Director, shepherding the production of marketing materials, program proposals, training presentations, workbooks, and online courses.A recent transplant from Manhattan, I live in New Jersey with my wife and four-year-old son, and I\'m an avid (and currently depressed) Baltimore Orioles fan.
