Below is a detailed and complete breakdown of what I offer in this comprehensive package: What You Can Expect From Me (Tangible Deliverables) • Personalized Story Framing (1 Hour): Tailoring your unique narrative to align with what Kellogg seeks in a successful applicant, ensuring your story resonates with the school's values and objectives. • Excelling with a Less "Prestigious" Background (if applicable): Providing strategies to differentiate yourself if you belong to an overrepresented applicant pool, possess a below-average GPA or GMAT/GRE scores, or come from an unconventional or non-prestigious undergraduate institution or pre-MBA industry. Drawing from my own experiences, I will guide you on how to make a compelling case. • Essay Editing: Offering unlimited brainstorming, thorough review, and iterative feedback to refine your Kellogg essays, ensuring they effectively communicate your strengths, goals, and fit with the program. • Resume Review: Conducting a comprehensive line-by-line evaluation of your resume, focusing on grammar, clarity, and design optimization to create a polished and impactful document. Recommender Selection and Strategy: Assisting you in selecting the most suitable recommenders, advising on the timing and approach for requesting recommendations, and providing guidance on how to guide and support your recommenders in writing persuasive and personalized letters that highlight your key attributes. • 1 Hour Mock Interview: Conducting a 30-minute mock interview following the Kellogg interview structure, followed by a 30-minute debrief session to discuss your performance, provide constructive feedback, and enhance your confidence for the actual interview. The goal is to help you excel during the real interview process. Application Project Management •Detailed Timeline: I will provide you with a comprehensive timeline that outlines all the important deadlines and recommended deliverables for each stage of the application process. This will help you stay on track and ensure that you are aware of key milestones throughout your journey. •Weekly Coaching and Feedback Calls: We will establish a regular call schedule for 1-on-1 coaching and feedback sessions. These calls will be tailored to your needs and preferences, and we can adjust the frequency based on your progress and requirements. The calls will provide an opportunity for us to discuss your progress, address any concerns or questions you may have, and provide guidance and feedback to enhance your application materials. •Organizational Tips: I will share valuable tips and strategies on how to effectively organize and prioritize your application materials. This will include guidance on creating a system for managing documents, structuring your essays, and keeping track of important information. These organizational tips will enable you to stay focused, efficient, and ensure that your application materials are well-organized and easily accessible when needed. •Accountability Check-ins: I will periodically check in with you to ensure that you are making progress and meeting your goals. These check-ins will serve as a reminder to stay accountable to the timeline and deliverables we have established. By maintaining regular communication, I will provide the necessary support and motivation to keep you on track and help you achieve your objectives throughout the application journey. One of the most significant advantages I offer is my exceptional turnaround time and commitment to open communication. I pride myself on providing prompt and efficient service to my clients. In most cases, I guarantee a 36-hour turnaround time for the documents you send to me, ensuring timely feedback and revisions. During critical periods such as interview preparation and approaching deadlines, I am even more responsive and can expedite work within 24 hours. I understand the importance of timely assistance during crucial stages of the application process, and I am dedicated to supporting you promptly and effectively. Maintaining transparent lines of communication is essential, and I am committed to keeping you informed and engaged throughout our collaboration. I genuinely value the opportunity to be of service and offer guidance to aspiring individuals in their pursuit of business school admission. If you have any inquiries or specific areas you would like to address, I am here to assist. Feel free to reach out whenever you are ready for an initial conversation, and we can tailor the process to meet your unique needs.

Kellogg MBA | 3 Top 10 Admits with scholarship | Succeeding with low GMAT

I am a current student of the Kellogg School of Management, with previous work experience within management consulting and in two high growth startups in NYC . I graduated from the University of Florida with a bachelor of science in Finance and received my masters degree in Information Systems and Operations Management. After school, I spent some time at management consulting firm Guidehouse Consulting before I transitioned to a Series B Unicorn food tech startup called Gorillas - the fastest European startup to ever reach a $1B valuation. I led the growth function at Gorillas for one year until I was offered the opportunity to lead North American expansion for micro-mobility startup Zoomo. At Zoomo I led our expansion into new markets, including launching our first Canadian operations. As an applicant from an over-represented demographic with a sub-optimal GMAT score and a lack of "prestigious" work experience I was able to navigate the application process and successfully land multiple top business school admits. As a coach, I plan to teach you the tips and tricks necessary to be successful in the ultra-competitive business school admissions cycle. I had immense success with gaining admission to a number of M7 and Top 10 schools including Kellogg, Yale, and Dartmouth Tuck. Areas I feel I can particularly bring value in coaching include: MBA Coaching: - Crafting a compelling and cohesive story (theme) for your application even with an untraditional work background or sub-optimal GMAT / GRE score. - Helping you stand out to the admissions committee as an over-represented applicant - Writing compelling and effective essays - 6+ month out application plan with a detailed breakdown of your application journey schedule - Preparing for interviews (Mock Interviews) - School and recommender selection advice
