HBS MBA Coach | Non-Traditional Path Expert | 10+ Success Stories
HBS MBA from a non-traditional path — I didn't fit the standard profile and got in anyway. I work with applicants who have compelling stories they haven't yet learned to tell: career changers, founders, first-generation students, and people whose backgrounds don't map neatly onto a consulting or banking trajectory. I help you build an application that's authentically yours and makes the case for why your path is an asset, not an exception.
