MBA Applicant Coach | Tech & Product Marketer
I bring a unique perspective to college and MBA admissions coaching because I’ve experienced the process from both sides, as an advisor and as an applicant. After graduating from undergrad, I worked at the business school at UCLA in student affairs, where I collaborated closely with admissions and supported prospective students through their journey. I had the opportunity to coach applicants, answer their questions honestly, and help them understand what admissions committees are truly looking for. I also served on my undergraduate alma mater’s admissions committee, where I reviewed applications and essays, giving me direct insight into how candidates are evaluated. After going through the MBA application process myself, I realized how valuable genuine, strategic guidance is. Too often, applicants receive vague advice, especially when networking, and it can be difficult to know how to stand out while still being authentic. That’s why my approach is rooted in honesty and clarity. I help applicants connect the dots between their experiences, their goals, and their story in a way that feels true to who they are. My goal is not to help you become who you think admissions wants but to help you present the strongest, most authentic version of yourself. You’ll always get real answers, thoughtful strategy, and guidance from someone who truly understands the process.
