George currently coaches clients on authentically marketing their business, and Brandon coaches clients on discovering their purpose. George lives in San Francisco, CA and has an MBA in Sustainable Management from Presidio Graduate School. Brandon lives in Berkeley, CA has an MBA from Columbia Business School.
