MIT Sloan and Harvard Alum | 18 MBA Admits | PwC Consultant
With an MBA from MIT Sloan, an MPA from Harvard Kennedy School, and a BA from Harvard, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table on applying strategically and successfully to some of the most competitive academic programs in the world -- and securing scholarships. I was humbled and grateful to be awarded a Dean's Fellowship (50K/year, 5% of class) to MIT, and a full-tuition Presidential Scholarship (full tuition, 1.5% of class) to HKS, both without additional applications. I understand what it takes to stand out in competitive environments and have successfully helped over a dozen clients in their MBA applications. My professional journey includes management consultant roles at PwC and Booz Allen Hamilton, where I honed my skills in human capital and HR-- skills that give me a unique perspective on recruiting, resume, and cover letter best practices. I am passionate about helping you craft a compelling MBA application that highlights your unique strengths. Let's work together to achieve your academic and professional goals!
