This plan is crafted to help you create MBA application essays that are not only compelling but also authentically yours—whether you're applying through traditional or deferred routes. As a former Booth Adcom member and someone who has successfully navigated the MBA admissions process, I understand what it takes to stand out, especially if you're coming from a non-traditional background. My own journey led me to secure admissions and scholarships at top MBA programs, including Booth, Darden, Kellogg, Tuck, Yale, and Kelley, totaling over $600,000 in scholarships. This experience, combined with my role as the founder of a successful tutoring company, equips me to guide you in crafting essays that resonate with admissions committees. Here's how we'll work together: Kickoff & Planning Session: We'll begin with a deep dive into your background, experiences, and aspirations. This session will help us identify the key themes and stories that will form the backbone of your essays. Story Discovery & Brainstorming: I'll assist you in uncovering the unique narratives that highlight your strengths and motivations. We'll explore how to frame your experiences in a way that aligns with the values and expectations of your target schools. Draft Development: Whether you're starting from scratch or refining an existing draft, I'll guide you through the writing process. We'll focus on structure, tone, and clarity to ensure your essays reflect your authentic voice and strategic positioning. Revisions & Feedback: I'll provide detailed, constructive feedback across multiple rounds of edits. Our goal is to polish your essays until they are cohesive, impactful, and ready to submit. Throughout this process, I am committed to being your strategic partner, helping you present the strongest version of your story. My approach is structured, honest, and results-driven, ensuring that your essays not only meet but exceed the expectations of admissions committees. Let's work together to craft essays that open the doors to your dream MBA program.

Former Booth Adcom | Craft Winning MBA Applications That Stand Out
I have successfully navigated the process at a high level and understand what it takes to stand out, especially from a non-traditional background. I earned admission into top MBA programs including the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, Darden School of Business, Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College, Yale School of Management at Yale University, and the Kelley School of Business - 3 of which were full tuition scholarships. In total, I secured over $600,000 in MBA scholarships. For someone who did not come from a traditional background, these results required clear positioning, compelling storytelling, and a well executed application strategy. Beyond my own results, I bring a unique perspective as both an education business owner. As the founder of a multi six figure tutoring company and a coach for the GRE, GMAT, and Executive Assessment, I understand how to break down complex processes, identify gaps, and help candidates improve quickly. I have worked across engineering, consulting, entrepreneurship, and social impact, which allows me to help applicants, especially those from technical or non traditional backgrounds, translate their experiences into narratives that resonate with admissions committees. My approach is structured, honest, and results driven, with a focus on helping you present the strongest version of your story.
