Package Description:
Columbia Business School doesn't just want impressive credentials—they want leaders who understand what makes CBS distinct. As a Columbia MBA alum with Poets & Quants Top 10 recognition, I know exactly what admissions is looking for, and I'll help you position yourself as someone who belongs at Morningside Heights. We begin with a 60-90 minute strategy session where I get to know you as a person, not a resume. From there, we collaboratively structure how to use your remaining hours based on your specific needs—whether that's intensive essay development using my CBSTOBY methodology, positioning strategy for CBS's unique culture, or interview preparation that showcases executive presence. This package typically includes: *Strategic positioning for CBS's collaborative, New York-centric environment *Essay development and strategic guidance on positioning for CBS *Resume optimization for what CBS admissions values *Interview preparation including strategy, mock interviews, and feedback *Insider guidance on demonstrating fit with CBS's entrepreneurial ecosystem Work is tailored to you. Some clients need deep essay work; others need help translating their story into CBS's language. We figure out what YOU need in our kickoff, then allocate time accordingly.

Essay positioning that demonstrates understanding of CBS's culture and New York advantage

3x Poets & Quants Top Consultant | Columbia MBA | 500+ M7 Admits
I have coached hundreds of global MBA and EMBA applicants since 2006, earning Poets & Quants recognition as a "Top Consultant" three times. Clients have described our work as “transformative” and “the best help I never knew I needed.” I particularly enjoy supporting clients to find and articulate their unique stories and “why.” My multidisciplinary background, depth of experience, and client-first approach to MBA and EMBA admissions distinguish my services. I am dedicated to working with clients to not only support their optimal admissions results, but also foster essential skills and insights that begin with each consultation and endure long after admission and matriculation. I hold an MBA (Finance & Management) and a BA (English) from Columbia University. My client base has included consultants, investors, doctors, military officers, entrepreneurs, family business leaders, filmmakers, and many more, who have gone on to earn degrees from top global programs in the US and abroad. I speak fluent Italian and am a Yoga Alliance-certified meditation instructor. I divide my time between New York City and the Berkshires of Western Massachusetts, USA.
