Hello and welcome to my profile! With a background in finance (investment banking, venture capital, private equity), I bring a wealth of experience to my coaching practice.

I’m qualified to coach in this category because I’ve personally navigated the global master’s admissions journey and helped hundreds of others do the same- successfully. I hold a Master in Management-Grande Ecole from ESCP Business School (FT Global Top-5) (with admits into HEC, LBS, LSE, ESSEC, Duke, etc.) and bring 7+ years of international experience across investment banking, strategy consulting, corporate strategy, and venture capital, working with firms such as Morgan Stanley, PwC, RTL Group, Citi, and Adler Group. This means I don’t just understand applications on paper, I understand how top schools evaluate profiles, potential, and long-term career fit, and how that translates into real outcomes after graduation. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of international candidates from diverse academic, cultural, and professional backgrounds, many of whom have secured strong admits across Europe, the UK, North America, and Asia. My reviews reflect that track record, but they’re only one data point. I strongly believe the best way to assess fit is a 15-minute conversation, where you’ll quickly see how I think, work, and challenge you. My style is straightforward, honest, and high-standards. I don’t over-promise, sugarcoat feedback, or “please” clients. I focus on clarity, precision, and execution, because that’s what top schools reward. If something doesn’t make sense for your profile, I’ll tell you. If something can be improved, we’ll fix it properly. 🎓 Programs I Support Master in Management (MiM) Master in Finance (MFin) Master in Financial Engineering (MFE) Specialized Master’s programs in Marketing, Sustainability, Strategy, Data, and Engineering-related fields 🌍 Geographies I Cover United States Western Europe (France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, Italy, etc.) United Kingdom Singapore China & Hong Kong If you’re looking for real guidance, not scripted advice, and want to approach your master’s applications with strategy, integrity, and confidence- I’d be happy to help.

I'm not here to get you into any specific program. I'm here to help you determine IF a higher degree might help you get to where you want to go. Sometimes it does, most of the time, the degree is not the thing that gets you there. It can help open doors - but you - the you who starts the program - you have to make the most of that time in the program and have a game plan going in! Most of these programs are 12-24 months. It goes by quickly - and you need to know where you're headed (or at least have a few options picked out) in order to maximize exposure to your desired industry or company. As a coach - I believe YOU have the answers to the hard questions like , "which program do I choose?" I can help by asking questions that bring to light your personal values, priorities, concerns and other important factors. I can provide tactical exercises to help you narrow down choices and eliminate options that aren't a fit. I've worked with business students and engineers from undergrad to MBA and have a pretty solid understanding on what you need to have to pivot into a specific field. Most admissions help comes from people who've worked on just that. Admissions. Getting INTO a program. I have experience looking at resumes (as part of Admissions decisions) with the lens of a recruiter and asking, "With this Master's/MBA degree, how competitive a candidate will this person be in their field?" You are likely pursuing a higher degree because you want that experience or the letters behind your name to help you make some kind of career pivot or "level up" in your current line of work. I work with those considering Specialized Masters and MBAs - and ask the hard questions to get to the root of what you want and if you truly NEED an MBA to get that - or if there might be other, equally valid ways to make that switch. That way - you can make your own pros/cons list without someone "selling" you from the university or college side. Sadly - admissions folks often know "outcomes stats" or highlights that they get from the Dean's Office or marketing department. Rarely are they familiar with what it takes to get a job in your chosen field - or whether or not you qualify to work in CPG or the entertainment as an international student on OPT. I ask questions like: - What you want out of the degree (learning vs hard skills vs opportunity based on industry) - What are your top priorities (in order) for your next job? More money? Location? Industry? Job title? Job function? - Which programs or locations might you consider based on common industry hubs and university partnerships for hiring? - How much research have you done about your chosen field? - Do you generally meet the pre-requisites of job postings that you're interested in? If not - what is missing and how do we build that skill set? - Do you require visa sponsorship and how familiar are you with the OPT/STEM OPT and H1B visa processes? I will be an honest and impartial thought partner to help you decide if you need a degree - or some directed career coaching (which I can also help with!). Not sure if it's a fit? Set up an intro call and find out :)

After getting admitted to LBS, LSE, HEC, Bocconi and ESCP, I have helped 10 other students crafting their applications to achieve success in their Masters admission journey.
