With a background in life sciences and business development, I bring a unique perspective to the application process.

Over the past few years, I have successfully coached several individuals, guiding them through the MBA admissions journey and helping them secure spots at top-tier programs. My expertise lies in crafting compelling application strategies, refining essays, and preparing for interviews.
