“Calvin Chin has always been an excellent sounding board, actively listening and using inquiry to reach thoughtful solutions. He has a passion for developing leaders and seeing them flourish. I witnessed this firsthand when he worked with developing leaders at the Entrepreneurship Initiative. Calvin is an excellent coach, not afraid to ask incisive questions, and will always be rooting for your success.”   - Elise Chong, Hope for New York

co-founder, Arts & Minds

“When I started Arts & Minds, I didn't know what a business plan was. Calvin taught me to write one and then I took it to win funding for my not-for-profit startup.”

"I genuinely thank Calvin for all the time, patience, and energy he has poured into coaching me. His support has meant a lot, and it’s helped me grow not just as a supervisor, but as a more thoughtful and confident leader.  I truly appreciate the way he challenged me, encouraged me, and believed in my potential. It’s important to me that I honor the work we’ve done together by applying it with intention and purpose."
