About Abigail

An MBA admissions coach who’s been in your shoes and knows how to help you stand out. I was accepted into Harvard Business School’s 2+2 Deferred MBA Program, Columbia Business School’s Deferred Enrollment Program, and Yale’s Silver Scholars Program. I earned a 331 on the GRE and graduated with honors in Economics and Psychology from a small liberal arts college. Today, I work at PwC on the AI Strategy team under the Chief AI Officer, and I’ve helped applicants from diverse backgrounds tell powerful, authentic stories that get results. Whether you're a traditional applicant or come from a non-traditional background, I can help you craft a compelling narrative, perfect your resume, and approach interviews with confidence. I’ve supported candidates with everything from overcoming low GPAs to positioning entrepreneurial ventures — and I’d love to do the same for you.

Why do I coach?

I coach because I know how overwhelming and opaque the MBA admissions process can feel — especially when you don’t come from a “typical” background. When I was applying, I didn’t know anyone in my personal network who had gone through the process before. What made the difference for me was the mentorship I received from people who believed in me, helped me find my voice, and pushed me to aim higher. I wouldn’t be where I am today — accepted to HBS 2+2, Columbia’s Deferred Enrollment Program, and Yale Silver Scholars — without their guidance. Coaching is my way of paying it forward. I’ve been in your shoes: second-guessing my story, revising my essays for the tenth time, and wondering if I was “enough.” I coach to demystify the process and help applicants tell their story with clarity and confidence. Whether you're a non-traditional candidate, a first-gen student, or someone pivoting industries, I’m here to be the coach I wish I had even earlier in the process.
