CEO and Board Director

"Carlos exceeded my expectations as a coach. During my time of transition his calm and direct approach was exactly what I needed. Carlos has an intuitive way of providing exactly what you need and pulling out the best of yourself. I simply couldn’t be happier with the output of the time we spent together."

Chief Business Officer

"I'm a seasoned executive with multiple projects under my belt, leading both startups and Fortune 25 teams. Through Carlos's questions, exercises and coaching, I found an authentic leadership style within me that I hadn't connected to previously. I highly recommend his insights and advice."

Supply Chain & Manufacturing Executive

"I have known Carlos for over 15 years, initially as a high-powered Executive Recruiter and in the last year as an Executive Coach. I have been very fortunate to have Carlos's guidance as a Coach while I navigated career transitions. I owe my recent successes to his coaching and guidance."

Chief Security Officer

"Carlos is an exceptional coach whose guidance has had a powerful impact on both my personal and professional growth. His ability to ask the right questions, challenge limiting assumptions, and offer insightful, actionable feedback helped me gain clarity, elevate my leadership presence, and navigate complex decisions with greater confidence. Each session was a valuable opportunity for reflection, growth, and forward momentum. What truly sets Carlos apart is his genuine commitment to his clients' success—he creates a space that is both supportive and results-driven. I highly recommend Coach Carlos to anyone seeking to unlock their potential, lead with purpose, and achieve meaningful progress in their career or personal journey."

Chief Procurement Officer

"Working with Carlos has been one of the most impactful decisions I’ve made during my career transition. I reached out to him because I was trying to figure out what was next for me and how to tell that story with clarity and confidence. While I had built a breadth of experience across several roles at a Fortune 10 company, I often found it difficult to frame that journey in a way that felt cohesive and strategic. Carlos brings a calm, thoughtful presence to every session. His guidance helped me move away from over-explaining and toward communicating my value in a clear, focused, and compelling way. His feedback is always practical, nuanced, and tailored to the executive level. I would highly recommend Carlos to any senior leader navigating career transitions or seeking greater clarity in professional narrative."

Chief Financial Officer

"Carlos has a thoughtful approach which he augments with measured questions tailored to your individual situation. He brings out your best thinking and challenges you to consider alternative perspectives, which has been particularly useful in self-reflection. Rather than rely on the traditional suite of tools, Carlos tailors his questions to meet you where you are and his assignments truly help you dig deep to surface and polish your value proposition. Given his background in executive search, his feedback is well informed to support executive leaders navigate transitions and throughout their careers."

Chief Operating Officer

"I first worked with Carlos during his time as an executive recruiter and was impressed by his comprehensive process for understanding and presenting potential candidates. Recently, Carlos has coached me in my search and prep for my next executive role. He has a powerful genuine approach, which has helped me to prioritize my purpose, develop my brand and improve my communication style. I highly recommend Carlos - coaches with his expertise are hard to find."

Global Supply Chain Executive

"Working with Carlos made a real difference in my career. He helped me sharpen my leadership presence, get more strategic about networking, and approach interviews with confidence and clarity. His experience recruiting senior leaders in operations gave him a unique perspective. He knew exactly how to position my strengths and prepare me for the kinds of roles I was targeting. What sets him apart is his gravitas and the way he brings real-world insight to every conversation. If you're serious about advancing your career, he's someone you want in your corner."

Fin-Tech Strategic Partnerships Executive

"I wholeheartedly endorse Carlos as an executive coach. With his extensive experience as a headhunter working with senior executives and C-level executives, he possesses a unique understanding of what drives success in the corporate world. Carlos's kindness, genuine approach, and deep expertise make him an exceptional career coach. He is well-equipped to provide sound and actionable guidance to individuals seeking to advance their careers. I highly recommend Carlos for his professionalism, expertise, and dedication to helping others achieve their career goals."

Board Director

"I had the privilege of working with Carlos during a pivotal period of career evaluation and reflection. His guidance proved to be invaluable, offering not only clarity in assessing my professional strengths and aspirations but also a structured framework for making confident, strategic decisions about the next chapter of my career. Carlos brought a rare combination of insight, empathy, and candor to each conversation. He challenged me to think beyond conventional paths while anchoring our discussions in practicality and purpose. Through targeted assessments, thoughtful dialogue, and a deep understanding of leadership dynamics, he helped me refine my professional narrative and identify opportunities that align with both my values and long-term goals."

Customer Experience Executive

"Working with Carlos was a game-changer for me during an important career transition. His coaching style helped me step back, really assess my strengths, and build a story I felt confident telling, from my resume to my elevator pitch and beyond. Carlos has a real gift for helping you develop self-awareness and see opportunities for growth you might have missed on your own. I’m very grateful for his support and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a coach who truly understands how to help you move forward."

Analytics & Data Science Executive

"I worked with Carlos very early in 2024 and I appreciated how he understood what I was trying to build out for myself without too much effort. We worked on some foundational pieces of my personal brand that have since allowed me to iterate on that and build a very strong talk track about what I bring to the table. I am now, a year on, getting more roles where I feel the overlap of skills, maturity, and fit are what I have been looking for, for some time now."
