"As the parent of two young adults, we knew a few years ago that we needed additional help to equip them as they made plans for their futures. When the first one was heading off to college, we reached out to Todd to see how he might be able to help.

Our son was bright but lacked direction. He’d taken plenty of aptitude tests in school, but we wanted something that would provide a more comprehensive analysis, taking into account what motivates him and how that aligns with his interests. The thought of choosing a major and deciding what to do was very stressful. We had Todd work with him, and I’m happy to report that our son is now in his first year of law school. I’m convinced that the time Todd spent administering and explaining the Birkman to him was key in helping our son find a direction.

We were so happy with the results that we had Todd work with our daughter a few years later, and she’s set to graduate almost a full year early after Todd helped HER see that she could turn her interests and creativity into a career in graphic design.

I fully recommend Todd as a coach. He has the unique ability to see through the data to the person behind it and adapts his coaching style so that the recipient is open to hearing what he has to say. Our kids couldn’t be more different, but he was able to help them both a great deal."
