Here's what Todd's clients are saying...
“Todd’s coaching and guidance is invaluable. He listens, guides you through alternative ways of thinking about the problem, and provides frameworks to apply to future situations. I’d recommend him to anyone who is hungry to sharpen their leadership skills.
– Natalie O’Brien, CEO of Level 2, Olympic Bronze Medalist
“Working with Todd, I was able to become better adjusted to my environment and how to efficiently approach my workload. He created a space where I could go with any troubles I was facing and not expect just a listening ear, but also a solution. Executive function coaching helped me stop feeling overwhelmed by my work, and subsequently allowed me to create time in my day for myself and the things I love to do. Overall, after my sessions with him, I am more prepared for challenging academics and capable of enjoying myself in the process.”
– Emma, Teen Executive Function Coachee
