162 - 168
I've been preparing professionals for the Executive Assessment and GMAT for over 10 years, alongside GRE and other admissions tests. II've worked with 400+ students overall, with EA students consistently scoring between 162 and 168 (top percentile), and all who completed the full admissions journey were accepted into their target program, including Executive MBA and full-time MBA programs at Wharton, Columbia, Chicago Booth, NYU Stern, Duke Fuqua, Michigan Ross, Darden, LBS, INSEAD, HEC Paris, Bocconi and IE. I hold an MBA from SDA Bocconi and Columbia Business School, a degree in mechanical engineering from Politecnico di Milano and the University of Illinois, and I have experience as a university teaching assistant. I also prepare for the SDA Bocconi Executive MBA admission test. The EA is designed for busy professionals who don't have months to study, but that doesn't mean it's easy. Lessons cover all three sections: Integrated Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning, and Quantitative Reasoning. I teach you to think efficiently under time pressure, spot the patterns the test relies on, and avoid the traps that cost experienced professionals easy points. We work with a hands-on approach: targeted strategies for each question type, realistic practice, and pacing techniques to make the most of the 90 minutes. The other key area we focus on, and that almost no one addresses, is the psychological side. Coming back to test-taking after years in the workplace can feel uncomfortable, the anxiety is real, and it costs more points than a concept you think you've forgotten.

Why do I coach?
I started taking private lessons in high school, and it changed everything. The right tutor didn't just help me pass exams, they made me genuinely passionate about the subject. That experience stuck with me. When a friend asked me to help him prepare for the GMAT, I said yes, and I realized I could do for others what those tutors had done for me. I started with GMAT, then university courses, and over the years moved into MBA admissions, Consulting Interview Prep, Private Equity and Investment Banking. What drives me is a simple belief: anyone with the right motivation can get there; it's about finding someone who explains things in a way that clicks, who understands you, and who pushes you forward. I love working with ambitious people who are ready to put themselves out there.
