Hello! I am a current MBA candidate at Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern. I offer a fresh perspective on the MBA application process – I recently underwent the MBA application journey and found success with multiple M7 acceptances while coming from a traditional, overrepresented applicant background. Regardless of an applicant’s hard stats, a successful MBA application requires a compelling story, powerful essays, and a polished resume, crafted via rigorous introspection of one’s experiences, strengths, and gaps. Whether it’s helping you narrow down a list of schools, brainstorming around your story, strategizing/reviewing essays and your resume, or helping prep for interviews, I’m here to provide end-to-end guidance throughout your application journey to help you stand out from the crowd.

Welcome to my profile! With over two decades of experience in MBA admissions and marketing consulting, I bring a wealth of knowledge to help you navigate the competitive landscape of business school applications. As the founder of my own consulting firm, I've successfully guided clients to top programs worldwide, including Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, and INSEAD. My unique background includes serving as an admissions reader at Johns Hopkins University and as the Director of Admissions at the University of Bath, where I evaluated applications from diverse international candidates. I specialize in crafting compelling narratives that resonate with admissions committees, drawing from my own experiences as both a part-time and full-time MBA student. Let's work together to create a standout application that reflects your unique story and aspirations. Reach out to start your journey to a top MBA program!

I am a 2021 Wharton graduate, with 2 years of professional MBA coaching experience. During my MBA, I coached 15+ MBA students with career guidance, resume critiques, and interview prep. I first encountered MBA coaching when I was applying to matriculate as an MBA in 2019. At that time, I realized how important an MBA coach could be, not only for the specialized toolset and knowledge base, but also for the encouragement during a high pressure application process. I am motivated to be that source of calm and focus during what can otherwise be a stressful application process. I am excited to dive into your background and help you uncover a narrative that will help you show you stand out to top MBA programs.

Having leaned into a true hybrid mentality, my passion areas of science, medicine, and business development have fostered my unique perspective on blended training and professional practice.
