"When I began coaching with Hernando I was initially skeptical as I had some experience with other coaches before. However during the discovery call I found that he put my fears to rest with surprising ease. Thus began my coaching journey that has surprisingly lasted for almost a year.

In this time, I have accomplished so much beyond what I initially thought possible, including but not limited to finding a career path I truly love, feeling confident and assured in my abilities as a team leader, and engaging in a journey of lifelong learning that has been so uplifting in my day to day. I found that the people closest to me, both colleagues and family, noticed a positive difference in my demeanor and general approach to tasks, even those I used to find extremely boring. I have become more flexible and accepting of failures yet more assertive and open to opportunities. I was able to turn being disheartened into a "never say die" attitude. Hernando was able to draw out results from me in such a finessed way even though I did not start off in the best of places.

I would recommend him without question to anyone having a hard time, wanting to get ahead, or needing a partner in strategizing their success."

S ~ Coaching Client

"I began my coaching journey with Hernando early this year, and the experience has been nothing short of transformative, humbling, and empowering. Hernando has an astute eye for identifying patterns in my thought process, decision making, and motivations, and helping me see these patterns for myself has been quite literally mind blowing. It's difficult to describe how hopeful it feels being able to unpack my mind, understand and therefore rebuild my mental models so that they serve me, rather than hinder me.

Since I started working with Hernando, the thought "I can", that I can do this, or can be that, surfaces more often, and with less discomfort. It's a really simple thought to have, but for me, is an achievement I feel very proud of unlocking after years of self-doubt. With Hernando, you never doubt that he is sincerely on your side. He has very clear, direct ways of communicating that make concepts easy to grasp and apply.

Overall, working with Hernando has been so worthwhile and I'm always excited for each session to further my journey."

R. ~ Coaching Client

"Hernando is a highly intelligent and compassionate person who is an expert in his field. He has been coaching me for years, and progressed through numerous aspects of my life that I never knew impacted my performance and outlook, but upon looking back, all the signs were there.

He helped me with my professional development and in dealing with personal issues, which have allowed me to excel in my career. There was always more clarity with clearly designed action plans after our sessions. HIs delivery is always simple to understand and straight to the point, without losing any indication that he is there to be your ally in success.

I would highly recommended him to anyone!"
