Anthony ’s Law School Qualifications
With a JD from the University of Pennsylvania Law School and an MBA from Wharton, I bring a unique blend of legal and business acumen to my coaching. My experience as a student interviewer for Georgetown University admissions and as a case interview interviewer at Wharton has equipped me with the skills to help aspiring law students navigate the competitive admissions process. I find my biggest value add to be dispelling the myths and rumors you may have encountered on forums like Reddit or in talking with other folks who have not been throught the process in recent years. In my experience, the Internet has a lot of half truths, so I am eager to clarify any thoughts or concerns you may have. I am also happy to provide candid advice on whether law school makes sense. I know far too many people who end up at law school through inertia and would have preferred another path. I firmly believe I was able to get a large scholarship and broad T14 acceptenace because of my ability to create a compelling narrative. Beyond a good score and GPA, it really all boils down to a compelling personal statement. This is where I shine - let me help you with this and more. Whether you're looking to refine your personal statement, prepare for interviews, or strategize your application, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.

About Anthony
I started my career by leaving Georgetown to work at a young, fast-growing start-up in Brazil. Fast-forward, I have completed 3 degrees and worked in both advisory and operating roles at companies of all sizes. This includes my own start-ups in a myriad of industries: crypto, sports betting, secondary retail, communications, as well as consulting at some of the largest financial institutions in the world. I currently lead a BU for a mid-sized public company where I work with several of my ex-MBB colleagues, as well as other professionals from more traditional paths. My passion for helping people, particularly in professional settings, is a core thread through all of my diverse experiences. Whether it is advising clients at McKinsey, case prepping 1Ys as a 2Y at Wharton, or upskilling my current team, I am focused on helping others achieve their goals. I love to identify for what they are solving and then walk them through the potential paths forward.
Why do I coach?
I coach for three reasons: (1) Return the Favor; (2) Impact; (3) Enjoyment 1) I benefited from prior coaching, so now it's my turn to provide the same (regardless of your own natural network - that is why Leland is so great, no prior network needed) 2) Folks are making life-changing decisions (literally). I want to make sure they do so on the most informed basis. 3) I truly enjoy working with others to accomplish their professional goals. I have been coaching for years and it never gets old. I find my biggest value add to be dispelling the myths and rumors you may have encountered on forums like Reddit. In my experience, the Internet has a lot of half truths, so I am eager to clarify any thoughts or concerns you may have.
