Diego Flores-Alvarez

Before HBS, I spent four years at a Catholic seminary studying to become a priest. That experience taught me to see people as whole individuals. I practice person-focused mentorship, meeting candidates where they are and understanding their story and their calling. I speak Spanish and can help translate your story into the language American admissions committees look for, surfacing the parts of your background that will connect with them. Attending HBS was a dream come true, but like many moments in my life, I had to overcome expectations to get there. Most importantly, I took the risk of being open about my unconventional path, my challenges, and my dreams. When you put your true self forward, you won't have regrets about your application, and that's what I want to help you do. Above all, I'm a husband and father of two girls, and the lasting impact I hope to have starts with my own family.
