Management Consulting

I’ve spent my career behind the scenes at McKinsey and other top consulting firms, designing and running the very systems that decide who gets hired. I led global implementation and training for McKinsey’s structured interviewing process, supported thousands of interviews across multiple regions, and trained interviewers to assess talent consistently and fairly. I know exactly what firms like McKinsey are looking for, because I helped build the frameworks they use. Now, I coach candidates to prepare with precision and confidence. Whether you’re tackling PEI stories, case interviews, or simply trying to stand out in a competitive field, I’ll help you decode what’s really expected and position yourself as the clear choice.

I bring firsthand experience from McKinsey, where I worked as consultant and conducted interviews, so I know exactly what top consulting firms look for. I’ve solved real client problems, structured ambiguity, and communicated insights under pressure, the same skills tested in interviews. I support you end to end, starting from day one: refining your resume and positioning, building a strong consulting narrative, and then rigorously preparing you for both case and fit interviews. My approach is structured and practical. I will help you break down cases, develop clear thinking, and craft authentic stories so you are not just prepared, but confident and differentiated throughout the entire recruiting process.

Welcome, bienvenidos, bem-vindos! I'm a former management consultant at McKinsey & Company with almost 5 years at the firm across the United States and Latin America - whether you need help with case interview preparation, resume optimization, or behavioral interview techniques, I'm happy to help guide you - I even interviewed more than 40 candidates for Analyst and Associate roles (including summer internships) during my time at McKinsey! Additionally, I am trilingual - I'm a native English speaker originally from the United States, but I have lived and worked in Mexico and Brazil and am happy to help out in English, Spanish, or Portuguese. Please feel free to reach out!

McKinsey-trained consultant and INSEAD MBA with 10+ years across management consulting, fintech, and data strategy — now leading international fintech partnerships at Intuit across UK, EMEA, and North America. I've been on both sides of the process: I navigated the MBB recruitment process, with a non-linear story, a career pivot, and a geo change, and came out the other side with exactly what I was aiming for. I've coached several dozen candidates on case interviewing and PEI— and I bring a genuinely diagnostic approach that's built around your specific gaps, goals, and story, not a generic playbook. My core strengths as a coach: -Case interview structuring and hypothesis-driven thinking -PEI and fit coaching — crafting stories that land naturally -MBA admissions — essays, interviews, and narrative-building for non-linear profiles -Resume and application positioning for MBB and top-tier firms -Career strategy and pivots — industry, function, and geography -Building a global career across multiple markets

Hi, I’m Kathie! I’m a Wharton graduate and management consultant who has always been fascinated by the intersection of business, creativity, and people. My own path has been anything but linear—from studying business and film in college, to exploring entrepreneurship, spending time abroad in Asia, and ultimately pursuing a career in consulting. Along the way, I’ve had to figure out many of the same questions you may be navigating now: What career is actually right for me? How do I stand out in a competitive process? And how do I turn my interests and strengths into a path that feels genuinely exciting? I love helping people work through those questions. My approach is practical and highly personalized: rather than giving you a generic playbook, I want to understand how you think, what you’re trying to accomplish, and where you’re getting stuck—and then help you build a strategy that feels like your own. Whether you’re figuring out your next career move, preparing for a competitive opportunity, or simply trying to make sense of what comes next, I’d love to help you get there.

Hello and welcome to my profile! With extensive experience at McKinsey & Company, where I served as an Engagement Manager and led multiple interviews for new candidates, I am well-equipped to guide you through the management consulting application process. My background includes a robust understanding of client relations and communication, honed through my roles at Rubicon Founders, McKinsey, Brookstone Partners, and Ernst & Young. I am a CPA and hold an MBA from Chicago Booth, which further solidifies my expertise in the field. Whether you need help mastering case interviews or refining your resume and cover letter, I'm here to provide comprehensive support. Let's connect and strategize your path to success in management consulting!

I've sat on both sides of the table. As a Kellogg MBA I recruited for consulting and received offers from McKinsey, BCG, Bain, and PwC. I then spent five years at McKinsey in San Francisco, where I was a case interviewer and left as an Engagement Manager. I know exactly what the interviewer is writing down, where candidates lose points in the first ten minutes, and what separates a "maybe" from a "yes." I also came to consulting from a non-traditional background. I started as an engineer at Shell, so I know what it takes to switch careers and learn the case format from scratch. My sessions are real interview practice, not lectures. We run a live case the way a McKinsey or BCG interviewer would, then I give you specific, honest feedback: what worked, what didn't, and the one or two habits that will move your score most. I also prepare candidates for the McKinsey Personal Experience Interview, which is where many strong casers lose the offer.

I worked at McKinsey for six years as an Engagement Manager on the growth team in New York City. I spent multiple years as the lead for college recruiting and interviewing.

I officially coached candidates through the McKinsey coaching program. I have also helped coach over 10 candidates interviewing to get into consulting. I have a 70%+ success rate with them (extremely high for consulting). Beyond giving you a case, I give you tips and tricks that take you from good to great. I am extremely candid and have one goal: get you that job.
