Description

Most applicants apply to more than one school, and the mistake is treating the second application like a copy of the first. This package gives two programs your full attention in a single round, with the foundational work done once and built out for each school rather than rushed twice. With 20+ years in MBA admissions and three Poets & Quants Top 10 recognitions, I help you put two strong, distinct applications in front of two committees. We open with a 60–90 minute strategy session to set your candidacy and confirm both targets. From there we build the career narrative once, the throughline that holds across both applications, then develop each school's materials to full depth. Across our hours together, we cover: - Strategy and positioning for both schools - One career narrative, adapted to each program without losing its core - Full essay development for both applications, across multiple drafts - Resume positioning for admissions readers - Recommender strategy and briefing - Complete interview preparation for each school that invites you Fifteen coordinated hours go further than two separate single-school engagements. The strategy and narrative work carries across both, so more of every hour goes to what makes each application land.


What you'll get from this package

Two complete, submitted applications, each built to full strength

A career narrative that holds together across both schools while speaking to each one directly

Essays developed through real drafts, not a template stretched twice

3x P&Q Top Consultant | 500+ M7 Admits | Story + Leadership Coaching

I've been coaching MBA and EMBA applicants since 2006 — which means I've worked through more admissions cycles, essay prompts, and school pivots than I can count. Poets & Quants has recognized me as a Top Consultant three times. Clients have called the work "transformative" and "the best help I never knew I needed." What I actually do: I help people find their story. Not the version they think they're supposed to tell, but the one that's true and specific and stops an admissions reader cold. That's harder than it sounds, and it's where most applications fall apart. My background is unusual for this field. I'm a Columbia MBA and a Columbia English major — and a former magazine editor. I'm also an ICF-certified leadership coach. That combination means I bring genuine writing craft and genuine coaching depth to every engagement, not just admissions strategy. My clients have come from consulting, banking, medicine, the military, entrepreneurship, filmmaking, and family business. They've gone on to HBS, Stanford, Wharton, Columbia, and programs across Europe and Asia. I work in English and Italian.
