About Amanda
Hi, I’m Amanda! My passion for expanding education access led me to my early career in entrepreneurship and product management, where I’ve dedicated myself to unlocking opportunities for others. I recently applied to business school through the deferred MBA application cycle, ultimately choosing Stanford GSB as my future school. As a former applicant from a non-target school (U. of Arkansas) with a diverse background in startups, academic research, and corporate product management, I know how to thread unique experiences together into a compelling narrative. I’d love to help you do the same. Book a free 15-minute intro call, and let’s kickstart your deferred MBA journey!
