Testimonials

"Alta has a remarkable ability to patiently navigate complex technical problems and translate them for a broader audience. She approaches unfamiliar topics with curiosity and confidence, asking insightful questions that not only clarify the core concepts for non-technical stakeholders but also help technical teams think more deeply about their own work. Beyond her professional strengths, Alta is a generous and thoughtful friend—someone who shows up for others in and out of the workplace. I feel truly fortunate to know her and am excited to collaborate more closely in the future."

”Helping me brainstorm and pitch feedback was invaluable to my progress prior to pitching in the Meet the Drapers TV show and fundraising competition. Working with Alta is amazing. She provides experience-based feedback and suggestions, her expertise is demonstrated and helped me bring investor attention which resulted in investment! ”

Juliette Humer, Founder at Muse.Bio

”You have extremely strong work ethic combined with a founder focused optimistic approach towards problem solving. You can both learn and teach simultaneously giving you a strong competitive advantage in the ever evolving startup landscape. Thanks to your encouragement to take rapid action during a crisis period in my life I was able to refocus my energies and land a fractional COO role within a VC portfolio and pinpoint bigger picture opportunities wrapped in otherwise seemingly short term solutions. Now I'm working on connecting larger scale projects and ecosystems together while also making progress on my long term startup opportunity.”

Jason Hartgrave, COO at Stabull & Former Growth Ops at Outlier Ventures

"During our coaching journey, Alta demonstrated exceptional listening skills and an innate ability to ask powerful questions at precisely the right moments, sparking deep reflection. You can feel her genuine presence and commitment - she excels at building trust and creating a safe space for exploration.I still remember a transformative moment during one of our conversations when an image appeared in my mind. The impact of our coaching has been truly transformative!

Over the past 8 months, I've made remarkable progress: I secured my first Western client, and began developing deeper collaborations with founders immersed in Western culture. Most amazingly, I discovered that I actually excel at cross-cultural communication - something I had previously doubted. The cherry on top? I received an offer from Network School V2, where I'll be working, learning, and training alongside people from dozens of different countries near Singapore.

What sets Alta apart is not just her powerful support during coaching sessions, but also her wonderful personality that extends beyond our professional relationship. She truly embodies the qualities of both an exceptional coach and a remarkable human being."

”Alta is assertive on her assessment and in line with what is practiced in the market. Feedback to pitch decks are concise and coaching thought provoking.

I'm working on creating a new startup that is more alignment with my values and mission. That was good because I was trying to falling in love with ideas that didn't resonate with me. But now I have a clear idea on what to build. ”

”Big thanks to Alta for an excellent speech workshop prior to pitching during the Meet the Drapers TV show fundraising competition! She approaches the process with great care: before the session, she sends preparation materials to help you think through your speech style, delivery, and key points in advance. During the session, Alta is fully engaged and provides a lot of valuable and precise feedback. I highly recommend working with her!
