Michael’s Management Consulting Qualifications

Experience level: Consultant

10+ people coached for Management Consulting

Michael has helped clients get into these companies:

I'm currently an early-stage climate tech startup operator, but attribute much of my professional journey and generalist skill set to my first job in consulting at Redstone Strategy Group, a boutique consulting firm focused on social impact. At Redstone, I worked on cases related to education, human services, and climate; I also co-led the recruiting working group, improving our candidate review, case interview, and deliberation processes. I chose Redstone over offers from Bain and EY-Parthenon. I've helped 15+ individuals secure roles at McKinsey, Bain, BCG, Deloitte, EY-Parthenon, and other top firms using a holistic coaching approach spanning behavioral / application review, a structured case coaching curriculum, and offer negotiation. I enjoy this work because it's rewarding to watch clients build skills around structured thinking, analytical intuition, and clear communication in real-time, and carry them into their professional careers. Reach out if you think I can be helpful in your preparation!

About Michael

I was previously chief of staff at Bedrock Energy, an early-stage geothermal energy company, where I joined as the team's first business hire. Over two years, I helped deploy our first projects, hire a world-class team, and raise a $12M Series A. In other words: https://www.thesunion.com/news/series-a-climate-tech-startups-first-non-engineer-job-listing-combines-eleven-distinct-functions-title-is-literally-just-the-word-businessman Prior to Bedrock, I was a consultant at a leading social impact boutique, where my clients included the Gates Foundation, International Planned Parenthood Federation, and NYC Mayor's Office of Food Policy. I grew up in Southern California and like to spend as much time outside as possible, whether I'm hiking, playing beach volleyball, or answering emails.
