MBA Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

I believe my success in MBA admissions came down to one strength: I was able to clearly articulate how my professional and personal experiences had shaped me, how I planned to make the most of an MBA, and where I wanted to go after that. When it comes to admissions, articulating your story is everything. I knew what made me passionate, built a plan for my MBA, and executed on it. If you're applying with a specific path in mind and need help putting that into words, I'm your coach. I recently graduated with an MBA from Wharton and a Master of City Planning from the University of Pennsylvania's Weitzman School of Design, and I specialize in dual degree and nontraditional paths. If you're not yet sure what you want out of the MBA experience, I'm here to help you introspect and sharpen your pitch. I can also offer specialized guidance if you're pursuing a real estate focus at any school or specifically targeting Wharton. It would be my pleasure to help you navigate a process that meant so much to me.

Welcome to my profile! I am an MBA student at Harvard Business School and a former consultant at McKinsey & Company, with an academic background in engineering and professional experience in product and strategy consulting. Even with a less-than-competitive GMAT score, I was fortunate to be accepted to every top MBA program I applied to in the US and Europe, and I want to help you find that same success, and some joy, in your own application journey. I have successfully coached five clients, helping them craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths and experiences. Whether you need guidance on application strategy, essay writing, or interview preparation, I am here to help you navigate the MBA admissions process.

Getting into a top MBA program is about much more than having great grades or test scores—it's about telling a compelling story that clearly demonstrates your leadership, impact, and potential. I know that firsthand. I was admitted to Harvard Business School (full-tuition scholarship), Berkeley Haas (full-tuition scholarship), Yale School of Management (scholarship), and Chicago Booth ($100,000 scholarship). Throughout the admissions process, I learned how to craft authentic essays, position my professional experience, prepare for interviews, and build an application that stood out among thousands of highly qualified candidates. Before my MBA, I built my career at Cummins, where I was promoted early and led high-impact engineering initiatives. Since business school, I've worked across private equity, M&A, corporate strategy, and business development, giving me a deep understanding of the experiences that resonate with admissions committees. As your coach, I won't write your essays for you. Instead, I'll help you uncover your strongest stories, sharpen your narrative, challenge your thinking, and present the most compelling version of yourself. Whether you're targeting an M7 school or another top MBA program, my goal is to help you maximize your chances of admission while staying authentic to your own journey.

I have successfully navigated highly competitive university, MBA, and consulting recruitment processes across the UK, US, and Germany. I was admitted to the Wharton Deferred MBA programme, completed a First-Class undergraduate degree at the University of Oxford, and received a full scholarship for my Oxford MSc. I have also secured consulting offers from McKinsey, BCG, ClearView Healthcare Partners, and ZS, completed internships at BCG and Merck Inhouse Consulting, and received full-time BCG offers in both London and Munich. In parallel, I have mentored more than 15 students from underrepresented backgrounds through successful applications to leading universities in the UK and US. My coaching helps applicants build a clear personal narrative, identify their strongest differentiators, and translate academic, extracurricular, and professional experiences into compelling CVs, essays, personal statements, scholarship applications, and interview answers. I provide structured, candid, and highly actionable feedback, with particular expertise in Oxford admissions, deferred MBA applications, consulting-oriented career narratives, and internationally competitive university applications.

I coach MBA applicants through the admissions process, with a focus on veterans, engineers, and other non-traditional candidates. Through my work as an admissions consultant with Service2School, I have supported applicants admitted to leading programs including Tuck, Wharton, Harvard Business School, Kellogg, and Chicago Booth. As a Harvard Business School MBA and former U.S. Navy officer with an engineering background, I bring firsthand experience navigating a non-linear path to business school. I help applicants clarify their goals, build a compelling application strategy, translate their experiences into a strong story, and prepare with confidence for interviews.

Welcome to my profile! As a first-year MBA student at Berkeley Haas, where I was awarded over a 50% scholarship, and as a member of the Consortium, I bring firsthand experience and insights into the MBA admissions process. I was admitted to 6+ MBA programs and received over $800K in scholarships, including 3 full-ride scholarships to T-10 programs. I interviewed at Stanford GSB, Wharton, Columbia Business School, Yale SOM, NYU Stern, UC Berkeley Haas, Northwestern Kellogg, and USC Marshall, so I can confidently prep you for those steps. My journey began at the University of Southern California, where I majored in neuroscience and minored in cinematic arts and actively participated in the student admissions committee, providing recommendations to the admissions team. With a professional background in writing, TV development, and talent management, including roles at Warner Bros., Disney, CAA, Hearst Media Production, and more, I understand the importance of crafting a unique and compelling narrative for your application. Whether you're looking to refine your essays, prepare for interviews, or strategize your application, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's connect and make your MBA dreams a reality!
