Top Admissions Coach | Crafting Standout Stories for Every Background
I began coaching graduate school applicants in 2013, while leading Corporate Fellowship recruiting for Wake Forest's M.S. in Management program. After being admitted to HBS, I was selected by my Section C peers as an Admissions Representative and elected by classmates in the African-American Student Union as the Admissions Ambassador. In these roles, I partnered with the HBS Admissions Office to host tours, connect prospective students with the community, and provide feedback on applications and essays. I served in both capacities for 2 years. Over the past seven years, I've also coached more than 20 MBA candidates on application strategy, narrative development, and resume refinement, helping them earn admission to top programs including HBS, CBS, GSB, Wharton, Tuck, and Georgetown.
