About Mervi
I’m a management consultant with a deep passion for helping others succeed. With years of experience in consulting, I’ve worked with clients to solve complex business problems—and now, I bring that same strategic mindset to MBA applications. I was admitted to top programs including MIT Sloan, Wharton, Booth, Kellogg, and Columbia, with scholarship offers from several. Through that journey, I discovered how powerful the right story and strategy can be—and I’ve been helping others unlock their potential ever since. As a coach, I combine the structure and clarity of consulting with personalized, one-on-one guidance. Whether you're a fellow consultant looking to make the leap or a career switcher targeting top schools, I’ll help you craft a compelling, authentic application that gets results. Let’s tackle this challenge together—and get you into a program that opens doors.
Why do I coach?
Because I genuinely love helping people reach their potential. In consulting, some of the most fulfilling moments weren’t just solving client problems—they were mentoring junior team members, guiding career decisions, and seeing others grow. Coaching MBA applicants gives me that same sense of purpose. I’ve been through the MBA application process myself—navigating the uncertainty, the self-reflection, the pressure, and I know how much the right support can make a difference. Coaching lets me combine what I do best: strategic thinking, storytelling, and empowering people. It’s incredibly rewarding to help someone tell their story with confidence and get that “you got in!” message. I coach because I want to help others unlock that opportunity too.
