What do clients say?

"Toby has an extraordinary way of interacting with people - his musicality is immediately obvious but how he brings that to the conversations he has with young adults makes them feel immediately comfortable. He’s a joy to work with and to interact with. My daughter feels blessed to be working with him!”

“I highly recommend Toby to anyone looking for help finding direction for the future of their artistic endeavors.”

"The way he talked about longevity and sustainability made it easier to compartmentalize actionable steps I can take today. . .and ways to make those moves matter for me in the future as an artist.”

"He asked questions that were not only for himself but also led me to analyze and think about my goals and work in new contexts."

"I had previously felt very overwhelmed on how exactly I was going to develop my dance company, but after speaking with Toby I felt set up for success with specific next steps I was going to take. He is incredibly personable and knowledgeable."

"He was considerate and supportive, and very helpful when it came to thinking about things that I can do right now as well as looking ahead five years from now."

"My conversations with Toby made me feel supported and confident in my steps going forward."
