Launch your Career with Confidence
A one-year membership to the Foundations Course—your essential roadmap from campus to career. Get the skills, insight, and confidence no one teaches but every professional needs.
Get Clarity, Skills, and Support to THRIVE - not just survive
You earned the degree.
You landed the job.
Now what?
No one ever explained how the corporate world actually works.
The unspoken rules. The complex organization charts. The meetings where decisions happen before the meeting.
Most people spend their first decade learning the hard way: mistakes, missteps, and missed opportunities.
Let’s skip the trial and error. This is your shortcut.
Your Corporate Playbook Starts Here
Foundations Core is your behind-the-scenes guide to succeeding in the real world of engineering and science.
Whether you're in your first job, internship, or still in school—this course is built to help you win.
I created Foundations because I’ve lived it. I started as a junior engineer, worked my way to the executive level, turned companies around, and mentored rising professionals along the way.
This course is the distillation of what I wish I had known back then—and what I now teach high performers.
Foundations is your shortcut to clarity, confidence, and career momentum.
It’s everything school didn’t teach you, delivered straight forward and built for real life.
