UC Berkeley Haas MBA | Adobe Firefly PM | Expert in Tech Internships
I can help with: 🎓 MBA application strategy and school selection ✍️ essays that tell a compelling, authentic story 📄 resumes that stand out to admissions committees 💼 positioning your professional experience for maximum impact 💬 interview preparation for top MBA programs 📈 building a competitive application from start to finish --- Getting into a top MBA program isn't just about strong credentials—it's about crafting a compelling story that demonstrates leadership, impact, and future potential. I was admitted to the UC Berkeley Haas MBA program and Carnegie Mellon Tepper MBA program, and I graduated from Brigham Young University with a 3.9 GPA in Strategic Management after being selected for BYU's highly competitive Product Management emphasis program. Today, I work at Adobe, where I build Generative AI products used by enterprise customers, following previous Product Management roles at Microsoft, Qualtrics, and Global Payments. Working at the forefront of AI has given me firsthand experience leading innovative products, collaborating with executives and engineering teams, and solving complex business problems—experiences that admissions committees value and that I can help you effectively communicate in your application. I specialize in helping applicants transform their professional experiences into compelling resumes, essays, and interview stories that highlight leadership, measurable impact, and long-term career vision. Whether you're applying to a top MBA program, pursuing scholarships, or transitioning into a new career through business school, I'll help you build an authentic application that stands out for all the right reasons.
