Haas Admissions VP, 4x Top Leland Coach, 200+ Top 25 Admits
I'm a Princeton undergrad and UC Berkeley Haas MBA with 10 years of professional experience coaching over 200 applicants to top programs. As someone who initially struggled with the MBA admissions process and with navigating my early career path, I am passionate about helping others have a smoother and more purpose-driven experience. While my background is in investments, product, and marketing, I love working with applicants from all industries and functions (variety is the spice of life!) I am also highly plugged into the world of entrepreneurship through my work in venture investing focused on UC Berkeley affiliated startups. MBA ADMISSIONS EXPERIENCE - Leland Top MBA Coach in 2026, 2025, and 2021. Leland Top 50 Coach (all categories) in 2024. - Began coaching professionally in 2017 with Stacy Blackman Consulting, where I was trained and mentored by former M7 AdCom members - Coached 200+ clients who have been admitted to Wharton, Kellogg, Sloan, Columbia, Stanford, Harvard, Haas, Booth, Ross, Tuck, Fuqua, Stern, LBS, Oxford, and many more; clients have received >$3M in scholarships - First-hand experience as the student VP of Admissions at Haas (2014-2015) and also served as VP of New Student Orientation (2013-2014) - Extensive experience helping clients with low GPAs, below median test scores, unemployment, etc. (and can personally empathize with some of these challenges) - Specialized knowledge of top part-time programs, including Haas, Booth, Kellogg, and Anderson COACHING COMPETENCE - Decades of experience giving others constructive feedback on their writing and speaking in corporate, editorial, and admissions coaching settings - Find personal fulfillment in mentoring: mentored financially disadvantaged youth in San Francisco on college applications and currently mentor small groups of college women in Utah on career development, higher education, and leadership - Brutally honest with my clients about their chances rather than saying "of course I can get you into XYZ school" (but will never discourage someone from applying to a reach program if I think there’s a chance!) - Known for collegial, astute, and supportive coaching style, as exemplified by one former client stating: “Emily is so much more than an MBA Admissions Consultant. She's a mentor, friend, and on many occasions...a therapist.” MARKETING & WRITING EXPERTISE - Held a variety of product marketing, product management, and investor relations roles over my 19 year corporate career, which honed my positioning and messaging skills (if I can make a boring old mutual fund compelling, think of what I can do for you!) - More creative writing pursuits include penning a #1 Amazon Bestselling book for first time moms in 2020 and serving as a sports writer for The Daily Princetonian in college
