About Mansi

Applying to business school was one of the most transformative—and overwhelming—experiences of my life. I know what it's like to stare at a blank essay, question whether your story is compelling enough, and spend weeks debating where you belong. Throughout my application journey, I was fortunate to earn admission to multiple top MBA programs, including Columbia Business School, where I'll be starting this fall. Along the way, I became obsessed with the strategy behind successful applications: crafting authentic essays, preparing for interviews, understanding each school's culture, and making one of the biggest decisions of my career. Outside of admissions, I'm a former Program Manager at Zillow and the founder of a wellness apparel company, Crave Active. Balancing a demanding career while building a business taught me how to tell a story that connects accomplishments with purpose—something admissions committees look for. As a coach, my goal isn't to write your application for you. It's to help you uncover the strongest version of your own story, build a smart school strategy, and make confident decisions throughout the process. I believe the best applications feel deeply personal, and I love helping applicants find the experiences that make them unforgettable.
