Wharton MBA '26 | Incoming BCG Consultant | Ex-LinkedIn & Accenture
I'm Maryam, an MBA candidate at Wharton (Class of 2026), where I received a merit scholarship. I will be working at BCG in San Francisco after school. Before Wharton, I spent years at LinkedIn and Accenture sitting at the intersection of business strategy and technology, and developing a real conviction that we can get anything we want in this life as long as we have the right people beside us. That belief brings me to coaching! The MBA application process is deeply personal, and the best applications don't just list achievements, they reveal the unique person behind them. I know this process from the inside: what Wharton looks for, how to frame a non-linear story, and how to turn your specific background into a compelling case for why you, now. Whether you're building your school list, thinking about your essays, or preparing for interviews, I'll help you find the through-line in your story and tell it with clarity and confidence.
