Michael has helped clients get into these schools:
Welcome to my profile! I’m a Wharton graduate and Harvard Business School MBA with over 15 years of experience in finance, including the last decade at Warburg Pincus—a top-10 global private equity firm managing over $100 billion—where I’m currently a Principal. Having reviewed hundreds of applications and mentored dozens of Analysts, Associates, and VPs, I understand what top MBA programs are looking for—because I’ve been through the process myself and helped others succeed. Whether you're applying to HBS, Wharton, or other top programs, I can help you craft a compelling application strategy, polish your resume, develop standout essays, and prepare for admissions interviews with confidence. From refining your story to navigating the entire application process, I offer personalized coaching to help you put your best foot forward and maximize your chances of getting into your dream business school.
