Anthony’s MBA Qualifications
60+ people coached for MBA
I applied to deferred MBA programs *very* last minute (<2 weeks of preparation, while working full time at McKinsey) and got into Wharton, my top choice. If you're looking for someone who knows how to craft MBA applications that stand out for clarity, depth, and authenticity, without wasting time, I'm your guy. I’ve guided applicants into programs like Wharton, Stanford GSB, and Harvard through sharp storytelling, strategic positioning, and essay development that highlights real impact. My background spans consulting at McKinsey, venture capital, and AI startups, which allows me to help candidates articulate both their professional and personal narratives with substance. Whether you’re pivoting industries, targeting elite programs, or struggling to define your “why MBA,” I’ll help you present a story that’s as polished as it is personal.
