"Are you looking for mentorship from one of the brightest design leaders in the Valley? If so, you’re really lucky to have found Quynh! I can’t emphasize enough how big of an impact she’s had already on my career. I reached out for coaching at a time when I needed to advance in my career but had faced some recent setbacks, including multiple layoffs and a failed startup that I built. Quynh was able to encourage me to get back up after falling a bit and also helped me strategize which opportunities to pursue. Her emotional intelligence is unmatched; she understands the complexities of how my previous experiences have shaped me, and she makes it a safe space for me to share my goals and my imperfections. But she also makes sure to challenge me. She’s the perfect example of what an ideal mentor looks like: kind, knowledgeable, and encouraging. I love learning from Quynh because she genuinely helps people and doesn’t do it for vanity purposes. I hope to someday have a fraction of her capabilities. "
