The comprehensive package includes all-in unlimited support, with a workflow as follows: 1. New Client Intake Form: prior to our initial strategy call, you complete an intake form, which helps me learn more about you. 2. Initial Strategy Session: our first Zoom video meeting, which lasts about one hour. We discuss your personal and professional background and talk through the application. Depending on where you are in the process, we might cover everything in this meeting, or we might need multiple meetings. 3. Application Roadmap: after our initial strategy session, I will create an Application Roadmap, a customized application strategy and timeline, which we will refer to throughout the application process. 4. Essay Brainstorming Sessions: for each school we work on together, we will kick-it-off with a Zoom brainstorming session. You will come to these meetings with general ideas on how you want to approach the essays, and I will provide additional thoughts and perspective. 5. Document Review: your package includes unlimited support for written essays, video essays, resumes, application data forms, and any other document included in the application. This includes scholarship essays for the school, but not third-party scholarship essays. After the essay brainstorming session, essay review is best handled back-and-forth using the track changes feature of Microsoft Word or Google docs. I return all documents within 48 hours, and while the number of drafts is unlimited, it usually takes ~3-5 drafts to get it right. 6. Recommendation Strategy: I advise on recommender selection and help you put together the recommender guide. I don’t suggest that you write the recommendations yourself, but if you are in this situation, or your recommender would like your feedback, I can review and offer suggestions. 7. Application Data Forms: The application itself has a number of fields and tricky questions. I will review everything you submit to them. You can preview to PDF, and save it as a single document, or we can Zoom through it live. For many reasons, I prefer not to have your log-in details or review it without you there. 8. Interview Preparation: you have unlimited interview strategy and brainstorming sessions, and one mock interview for each school purchased (i.e. 4 schools, 4 mock interviews). The schools we mock do not need to be a school we worked on together. For instance, if your first invite comes from Oxford, but we did not work on Oxford together, we can start our prep with Oxford. Please note that I do not host mock interviews for Wharton TBD, but will instead work with you individually to prepare. 9. Decision Management: you have unlimited support with any post-application concerns, including deposit strategy, reviewing waitlist letters, and enrollment management. Our engagement ends once you receive a decision from each school regarding the application(s) I assisted with, or May 31, whichever is earliest.


How will this coaching take place?

This package will be delivered via live sessions.


I try to bring a down-to-earth approach to coaching, with a focus on nailing the end-to-end strategy. My style is to be honest and transparent, while inserting levity and calm into a sometimes-stressful process. I am available for you when you need me, including evening meetings and weekend deliverables.

Hands-on professional coach with 15 years experience; former Stern AdCom

As an Associate Director of MBA Admissions at NYU Stern, I actively recruited domestic and international applicants, reading 400+ candidate files and interviewing 100+ applicants, annually. I left in 2015 to start my own consulting firm, and have since advised 250+ applicants into their dream schools. As I enter my eighth season, I have seen it all: successful reapplications, last minute waitlist pulls, and sub-3.0 GPA’s getting into M7 schools. I have also helped clients secure over $5M in scholarships. Coaching is my full-time job, not a side hustle. I take the role seriously, and promise to care about your application as much as you do.
