Questions?

You can start chatting with Amanda before you get started.

I’m a graduate of the Wharton School and an incoming Associate at Boston Consulting Group. I will also be completing my MBA at Harvard Business School. As an undergrad, I successfully recruited for consulting, receiving offers from both McKinsey and BCG. Since then, I’ve supported dozens of peers and clients in breaking into top firms—MBB, Bain, and tier-2 consultancies—through personalized, structured case interview prep.

Amanda also coaches for Management Consulting, MBA, GMAT, and College. View all.

Amanda’s Prestigious Scholarships & Fellowships Qualifications

I’ve been through the scholarship grind myself—and I get how overwhelming it can feel. I was fortunate to be awarded both the Fulbright Scholarship and the Gates Scholarship, two highly competitive programs that require more than just good grades—they demand a compelling story, a clear sense of purpose, and polished, authentic writing. As someone who’s not only navigated this process but helped others succeed as well, I bring real insight into what selection committees are looking for. Whether you're just brainstorming or refining a final draft, I can help you craft an application that’s not only impressive but genuinely you.

Why do I coach?

I coach because I know how overwhelming and opaque the consulting recruitment process can be—especially for students without built-in networks or insider guidance. What made the difference for me was mentorship: having people who helped me practice, gave honest feedback, and pushed me to improve. Now I want to offer that same support to others. I’ve seen firsthand how tailored prep can turn uncertainty into confidence.
