Stanford MBA | VC Investor | Storytell your way into your dream MBA
I'm a Stanford MBA grad, UT-Austin alum, and immigrant with a collaborative, results-oriented approach focused on getting you into your dream program. Before business school, I worked in management consulting and venture capital investing, and I've reviewed, coached, and sharpened the stories of hundreds of applicants across top programs. My superpower is turning intricate, high-potential, and / or immigrant backgrounds into crisp, high impact narratives that capture attention fast. As a Stanford MBA admissions ambassador, I know exactly what top programs look for and how to position you to meet those expectations. I guide applicants on targeted school selection, polished resume reviews, and strategic essay writing, helping you build an application that is genuine, compelling, and fully aligned with your future goals.
