Avoid working for weeks without direction. I guide you on how to started on your essays and what admissions look for. If you have a limited budget for coaching, this is the MOST valuable step. Through a 2hr strategy call, set up a winning foundation from the start of your applications, or get unstuck. Will accelerate your work by clarifying what schools look for and reducing weeks of research and "free" advise that costs you time in distilling what is helpful for your specific profile. Great for those who are are self-driven but want a strong start, or those on a limited budget. We dive deeply into your personal, professional, community and goal stories. 1. Strengths and weaknesses analysis for your specific profile; 2. Essay question breakdown/strategy based on expertise of what admissions look for; 3. professional advice on formulating your goals tested against real market trends; 4. impact of low GMAT/GPA lower ranked colleges; 5. Winning school selection based on feedback from hundreds of alumni from every program 6. Resume and Online Application: Discuss pointers to write an "MBA" resume 7. Letters of Recommendation (LOR): Discuss recommender strategy I hope to inspire confidence by providing frank feedback and making recommendations as needed to form the best possible application. I have been in your shoes and can empathize with wanting to put your best foot forward and get it done. At no time should you feel like unneeded services are being pushed onto you, but the areas we cover in 2hrs are dependent on the amount of questions, how "sticky" details we need to strategize, and your ability to jot the feedback down to apply on your own. You can add more hours to continue getting support in other areas. Because it’s hard to predict how many hours an applicant may need, I can not predict if hourly is cheaper than the start-to-finish package.

🎓Harvard |Top Coach Globally to 200+ Admits | AI/Product/MBB/Fin/RE/Health
🚀I'm a top deferred and full time MBA admissions coach with 11yrs experience and 85% success rate to H/S/W + Top 15 global MBAs. 🥇Being a top coach means I have high coaching EQ and guide with frameworks derived from: 1️⃣ A deep understanding of how admissions officers think - I am rated more effective than coaches who are former admissions officers 2️⃣ Direct experience in the roles you seek, relevant to tie your experience and goals together 3️⃣ Technical startup mentality that allows me to coach you how to showcase your innovative side by pitching creatively ✅ Taking on 3 dMBA candidates. 🧙🏼♂️ Expert working with highly technical industries/roles: Enterprise AI, product management, consulting, health&wellness, gov, infrastructure, real estate, fintech, engineering 🌍 Middle East, Europe, Latin America experience derived from working/living in different countries 🤖I’m ahead of the MBA admissions coach pack—I've built AI prompting tools to complement one-on-one coaching. 🤖 Using ChatGPT/Gemini/Claude? Review is a must to identify AI patterns. 👉🏼Through our conversations, I challenge you to discover your leadership voice by placing you in the "interview seat" from our first call. I draw on my deep understanding of what admissions look for and what essay questions are truly asking for to help you create an authentic story and ambitious goals that stand out. Together we create a design session where we think deeply about personal and professional moments that show who you are. This leads to your strongest application, higher interview invitation rates, and admissions. 🤖 Expertise in prompting generic ChatGPT/Anthropic AI to get non-generic admissions caliber feedback. I evolved my 1:1 coaching to include guidance on using AI effectively for clients who see it as a tool, but continue to provide traditional coaching for those who don't want it. I have developed prompts that remove the generic responses that general use AI tools provide, to make them essay specific and in your voice. Try this formula that works: Invest in 2-5 hours of quality coaching to unlock your core stories. Then use getMBA.ai to accelerate the iterative writing process—turning weeks of grunt work into days. 🌍 I work with a small group of international/US candidates each round from diverse backgrounds (tech, entrepreneurs, consultants, family business). I am available for my clients within short notice. Get started right away with intro 1-2hrs foundational call - according to my reviews, it's a worthwhile investment. 👉🏼 Most clients do not have clear goal when we begin working together, but end with clear career direction - and some have started companies based on the ideas we formulated together. 👉🏼Unlimited Coaching package includes additional review by a second coach (you get 2 in 1 coaches!) 👉🏼I apply my superpower as an innovator and storyteller to walk clients through a framework that helps connect the dots of past experiences and future aspirations. We get to your “aha” moment and get you excited (and less anxious) about your own fantastic and bold story - this in turn elevates your competitiveness in MBA applications and interviews. 👩🏻💻 IG: MBAcoach 👉🏼My expertise has been featured in Poets&Quants. 👉🏼I have advised professionals across 20 countries in complex industries including tech, finance, consulting, government, healthcare, biotech, entrepreneurship, renewable energy, military, and telco. Experience spans product management, strategy, operations, analytics, finance, sales, engineering and manufacturing. Areas of less expertise: Brand management, marketing, HR. 👉🏼Experienced with top 17 MBAs worldwide: Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, Kellogg, MIT, Booth, Columbia, Tuck, Haas, Yale, NYU, UCLA, Ross, Duke, Fuqua, London Business School, Insead 👉🏼Experienced with MBA, EMBA, PT MBA, & deferred admissions. 👉🏼Experienced with dual degrees MBA/MPP(A) or MBA/MA product, design, engineering, education, biotech. 📣 Poets&Quants Article: https://poetsandquants.com/2024/08/07/tips-to-nail-new-harvard-mba-essays/?pq-category=sbc&pq-category-2=sponsored-blogs 👩🏻💻Personality traits: I recognize that applying to competitive MBAs is a serious process for you on top of a competitive full time job. I inject my naturally open and humorous personality to make the process feel a little less like work. Nimble and grounded are other core strengths, I know when to guide to create urgency and when to give you room to explore your creativity. *Note: only up to 3 initial hourly purchases will be credited toward upgrade to Unlimited Coaching packages
