About Sushmitha
Hi and welcome! Here's a little bit about me: - MIT Sloan, Class of 2022 - ex-PL at BCG (began as a summer consultant), specializing in Industrial Goods, Consumer, and Retail - Began my career as a chemical engineer before earning my MBA, and later worked in Product Management and Marketing at early stage startups - Currently working in Product Strategy
Why do I coach?
At MIT I worked with admissions, reviewed resumes, cased prospective consulting applicants, and helped incoming MIT applicants with their application. At BCG, I served as an interviewer for final round interviews and helped with the recruiting process. I’ve coached >150 people and I love crafting stories and bringing the best in people. In addition, I am a professional musician and my experiences, from my methodical approach as an engineer to creating content on YouTube that has earned over 11M views, have helped me find ways to use my right and left brain to craft compelling stories and make any challenge more attainable. I have helped numerous people case for consulting and apply to top business schools. My goal is to help you uncover your maximum potential by nudging you in different ways that help you reflect and brainstorm ways to tackle any problem at hand. I’m a firm believer in a hands-on, collaborative approach. I know you have the grit and fire to achieve something big, and I would be honored to help you in that journey.
