Part-Time MBA Admissions Consultants

I’m a Chicago Booth MBA and former McKinsey Engagement Manager who has coached 50+ candidates on MBA admissions strategy, profile positioning, resumes, essays, and interviews. My coaching focuses on the part of the application that matters most: helping you build a clear, differentiated story around who you are, what you have accomplished, why you need an MBA, and why a particular program makes sense for your goals. I have worked with candidates from consulting, engineering, technology, and other professional backgrounds, including applicants targeting Booth and other M7 programs. I can help you with: - Profile assessment and school selection - Overall application strategy and positioning - Career goals and “Why MBA / Why now?” narrative - Resume review and positioning - Essay strategy, structure, and feedback - Booth and M7 interview preparation - Evaluating multiple offers and choosing the right program My approach is practical and candid. I will help you identify what is genuinely differentiated about your profile, flag weaknesses early, and make sure the different pieces of your application tell one coherent story. I focus less on polishing individual sentences and more on helping you make the strategic decisions that determine whether the overall application is compelling. Whether you are just starting to think about business school or preparing for an upcoming interview, I can help you understand where you stand and develop a focused plan to strengthen your candidacy.

My applicants have been admitted to schools including GSB, HBS, Wharton, Sloan, Kellogg, Ross, Cornell, Booth, Haas, Columbia, & Rice. Across first-time applicants, reapplicants, and deferred applicants, they have received hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarships. Aside from my experience coaching MBA candidates, I have spent my post-GSB time consulting for founders, early-stage startups, and investors across for-profit and non-profit spaces globally. This has allowed me to uniquely guide current or aspiring entrepreneurs and investors throughout the application process and, for numerous clients, beyond as I’ve continued to be a resource helping to navigate questions regarding financial aid, maximizing the MBA experience, internships, and post-MBA careers. The application process is not easy and for most, including myself when I applied, it’s straight up stressful. I work closely with a limited number of clients, creating bespoke coaching experiences for each, building trust and bringing clarity to an opaque process. I believe this approach has helped my applicants be successful. Whether you’re coming from a traditional background or not, regardless of your test scores or application ‘gaps,’ if you’re interested in showing the best version of you possible and having someone fully on your team along the way please reach out.

Former Assoc. Director of Admissions at UC Irvine

As a healthcare professional and clinician-in-training, it was very important for me to 'bridge the gap' between the medical and business worlds. 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. I strive to coach other hybrid professionals as they break into new, complementary spaces.

Have applied for multiple MBA programs in the past (including FT and PT). Happy to help you in your journey make sure you meet deadlines and get inside advice into the admissions decision-making process.

I love mentoring and coaching students and applicants - I regularly volunteer my time with the Berkeley Haas entrepreneurship program by providing course content, speaking opportunities, mentorship hours, and coaching. I also regularly support incoming MBA and MPH students with application review, interview prep, and more. While at Haas, I worked with the MBA & MPH admissions committees for a year and picked up a bunch of tips and tricks to hack the process! My journey: pre-med undergrad > biotech scientist > healthcare management consulting > grad school > healthcare entrepreneurship & venture capital

Welcome to my profile! As a current MBA student at Harvard Business School and a Master in Public Policy candidate at Harvard Kennedy School, I bring a unique perspective on how to craft a compelling application and interdisciplinary narrative that stands out from the crowd (my application success rate was 100%). With experience coaching friends and colleagues, I am passionate about helping aspiring MBA candidates craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths and experiences. Let's work together!

Despite being from an overrepresented demographic, I managed to get accepted into all three programs that I applied for (INSEAD, Oxford, and Berkeley). Additionally, I had major financial and time constraints because I already had 2 children (at the age of 28!) before applying to business school. I'm not a naturally good test-taker so I had to be both efficient and creative to pull this off. I was able to get into these programs because I'm strategic, resourceful, and know how to craft a story with the audience in mind. I have a lot of experience teaching/training and am excited to help you craft your story and demonstrate to admission committees that you are unique and that you have a lot of value to add to their programs.

As a Product Manager at Microsoft, I bring a unique perspective to MBA coaching. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Economics from the University of California, Santa Cruz, where I was a College Honors Merit Scholar and a Grace Hopper Scholar. As a college senior, I applied and was admitted to top business schools across the country, including Wharton, MIT Sloan, and Columbia Business School. I've also helped several clients get admitted to top 10 business schools. Let's connect and discuss how I can support you in your MBA aspirations!
