Cristian’s Master’s Programs Qualifications
Coaches professionally
Hi there! I come from a non-traditional background and wrote a successful application to join the MA in Politics & Economics at the University of Glasgow and then the MPhil in Development Studies at Oxford University. After graduation, I joined McKinsey & Company and worked full-time for 5 years. Afterwards, I transitioned to writing and returned to Oxford as a student in the MSt in Creative Writing. Over the last five years, while writing, I set up a coaching practice where I worked with multiple candidates to get into top schools (primarily graduate programs). My experience is based on having gotten myself twice into the Oxbridge system and supporting others join top 20 universities around the world. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. Best, Cristian

Why do I coach?
I coach because talent is rarely the limiting factor - direction is. Most people work hard but spend too much time on low-leverage effort, especially when the process is messy and the feedback loop is weak. My coaching is designed to fix that: diagnose, prescribe a clear direction, and build a process you can execute under pressure. Last but not least, it's fun and humbling at the same time.
