About Satoko
If you are an experienced leader considering to apply for business school, if you are interested in the Stanford MSx (1-year MBA) program in particular, if you are eager to accelerate your career while raising your children, and if you are trying to apply to a US business school from outside, let's talk! I am a corporate development professional in the clean energy industry and a recent graduate from Stanford GSB. I have 12-years of global work experience leading cross-border acquisitions and post-merger integrations, and raising funds for clean energy projects and portfolios. After aI have moved across the ocean for work, have experienced the challenge of balancing personal and professional life, and had a baby while being a graduate student at Stanford. I started coaching while at Stanford, and specialize in Stanford MSx admission and career/life planning. I am a foodie, an adventurer, a hiker, a certified yoga teacher, and a lifelong learner.
