Booth Admissions Fellow who read and evaluated real MBA applications
I've been on both sides of the MBA admissions desk. As an applicant I was admitted to Chicago Booth, Cornell Johnson, Columbia Business School, and NYU Stern; including a full-ride scholarship at Cornell, and I negotiated additional scholarship money out of Booth, where I enrolled on the two-year Lester Armour merit award covering 85% of tuition and fees. At Booth I then served as an Admissions Fellow: I reviewed applicants' submitted essays, interviewed them, and wrote the evaluations that went back to the admissions committee. That's the part most applicants never get to see; how an essay actually reads to someone who has read many of them, what an interviewer is listening for behind the questions they ask, and why two candidates with the same numbers get different answers. Since Booth I've worked in private equity, Fortune 500 finance at ServiceNow, and non-profit leadership, and I teach accounting as adjunct faculty, so I can also pressure-test the career story underneath your application: where you're going, why an MBA gets you there, and whether a stranger on the committee will believe you. If you're targeting a top program; or you're holding an admit and want more money attached to it, I'd like to help.
