Johnny’s MBA Qualifications

Johnny has helped clients get into these schools:

Hi there! I'm Johnny, and I'm thrilled to support you on your MBA journey. I was fortunate to be admitted to Harvard Business School, Stanford GSB, and Harvard Kennedy School, and I previously worked at McKinsey & Company. But more than the names on my résumé, what sets me apart as a coach is how personally I understand the grit, self-doubt, and strategy it takes to craft a standout application. As a first-generation college graduate, I know how overwhelming this process can be—and I’m here to help you navigate it with confidence, clarity, and heart. Whether you're building your story from scratch or polishing your final draft, I’ll meet you where you are and help you find your voice, tell your truth, and maximize your chances at the schools of your dreams.

About Johnny

I'm pursuing the Joint MBA at Harvard Business School and MPP at Harvard Kennedy School. I know how personal and overwhelming the MBA process can feel. As your coach, I’ll meet you where you are, help you own your story, and work with you to craft an application that feels authentic and compelling. I’m especially passionate about supporting first-gen / mission-driven applicants, so please do let me know if there is a cost barrier.

Why do I coach?

I coach because I believe everyone’s story matters. The most powerful thing you bring to any school or job isn’t a perfect resume—it’s your lived experience. I’m here to help you uncover that story, own it with confidence, and realize that you already have everything you need to succeed.
