Your ability to tell your unique story will make or break your application. Who are you, really - and how do the dots connect? Most applicants can't see it clearly themselves. I can. I hold an MBA from Columbia Business School and have hands-on experience as an MBA admissions consultant with The Red Pen, where I've helped 50+ applicants uncover their real story and land offers at schools including LSE, Michigan, Columbia, IIM, and Harvard (MPA). I know this process from both sides - I went through it myself, got into Columbia, and have spent years since helping others do the same. Beyond admissions, I bring 14+ years of enterprise-scale strategy and transformation leadership - operating at Director and Principal level across financial services, government, and global consulting. I've been an advisor to 500M dollar strategy reviews, presented directly to Boards and C-suites, and led cross-functional teams of up to 500+ stakeholders - delivering measurable results, including 40-45% efficiency gains. My background spans KPMG, Dalberg, and the United Nations, working across Sydney, New York, Jakarta, and Mumbai. Let's find your story - YOUR INCREDIBLE UNIQUE STORY — and build an application that's unmistakably yours.
