I first worked with Brian when he was managing a large transaction for a multinational health care company. I was impressed by his self-aware leadership and empathetic approach to team management - coaching a brand new associate in her new role while encouraging more seasoned team members to take greater ownership and responsibility. Throughout the engagement he also demonstrated deep subject matter expertise with anticipation and management of client challenges and identifying viable solutions. In the time since, I have valued Brian who served as a willing sounding board and mentor for career and professional considerations, an enthusiastic and reflective student sharing new information from his coursework at Booth and a friend.

I worked with Brian extensively at Booth, and can confidently say that Brian is everything you want in senior leadership. While partnering together in courses including Investments and Corporation Finance, I found Brian to be remarkably intelligent and reliable – he always comes prepared with an unparalleled understanding of issues. He takes an inspiring amount of ownership over team outcomes, and possesses key traits that place his leadership at a level above the rest. He asks the right questions and listens to other perspectives, which enable him time and time again to offer an impressive degree of clarity during problem solving. His seasoned business acumen and willingness to take initiative without hesitation drove high quality outcomes for our teams. Brian also goes out of the way to show compassion for others – I have witnessed him enthusiastically mentoring teammates in both coursework and professional goals. These traits result in people repeatedly wanting to partner with him. The mark of an effective leader is someone who motivates and brings the absolute best out of others – and Brian fits that description very well. I can comfortably claim that his brand of leadership is extremely rare, and that his guidance will be an exceptional value-add to any organization.
