y and confidence.
What truly distinguished this experience, however, was the extraordinary guidance of my Client Success Coach, Christopher Lau. Throughout our coaching session, Christopher exemplified professionalism, compassion, and integrity. His approach was nothing short of inspiring — he listened attentively, offered thoughtful insights, and demonstrated a remarkable level of empathy that is increasingly rare in today’s financial landscape.
I was struck by how respectfully and honorably I was treated — never as a case number, but as an individual with potential, commitment, and a clear vision. Christopher’s mentorship was not just encouraging — it was empowering. His ability to combine practical advice with genuine compassion left a lasting impression on me.
Windmill Microlending is not simply a lender. It is a values-driven organization that embodies inclusion, trust, and human dignity. They have created a model of support that is deeply needed in today’s society — especially for those of us navigating new professional directions.
Thank you to Windmill, and most sincerely to Christopher Lau, for championing my ambitions and reinforcing my belief that with the right support, people can truly thrive. I am honored to have been part of this process and will proudly carry forward this trust and support in all my future endeavors.

He demonstrated not only deep understanding of my professional goals but also a rare emotional intelligence that made the experience deeply human. He helped me feel seen, heard, and supported at every stage. What truly distinguishes Windmill from conventional lenders is their commitment to ethical microlending.
