Hey there! I'm Katie—I earned dual MBA/MPA degrees at Stanford GSB and SPIA, and coach admissions for MBA, MPA, and fellowship programs for graduate and undergraduate students. I can't wait to meet you and learn more about how we can turn your dreams into achievable goals, together. I grew up in Tennessee, and got life-changing opportunities to gain a higher education through three fully-paid programs: the Jefferson Scholarship, the Knight-Hennessy Scholarship, and Princeton SPIA's funded MPA program. I've successfully navigated admissions to multiple MBA and MPA programs, and have weighed virtually every combination of joint degree and fellowship program out there. I know how high-stakes these application processes can feel, and how important it is to develop an application and interview in a way that reflects what you uniquely bring to the table. Beyond my own experience, I've spent six years serving on scholarship and admissions selection committees. I've seen how reviewers read applications, what makes essays memorable, and how candidates can avoid common obstacles in the process. I've coached +20 students through every stage of the process—from preparing for standardized tests and identifying the right programs, to crafting compelling narratives and preparing for interviews that feel authentic. Beyond working in investment policy, I love exploring running routes through my new hometown of San Francisco, dabbling on the piano, playing tennis at the park up the street, and hosting dinner parties with my wife.

As a tech founder and writer, I help ambitious candidates stand out in elite admissions by telling their story with clarity, conviction, and craft. I was one of roughly 30 students admitted to both Harvard Business School and Harvard Kennedy School in my year, earning three prestigious fellowships along the way and later being recognized as a World Economic Forum Global Shaper. I understand how competitive admissions committees think — and what separates memorable applicants from merely impressive ones. What sets me apart is that I don’t believe an MBA is right for everyone — and I bring that discernment into my coaching. Before we optimize your application, we start with a candid conversation about whether this degree truly aligns with your goals, timing, and trajectory. If the answer is yes, I help you articulate who you are and present your story with clarity, confidence, and depth. I’ve been working with high-achieving students on career and personal development since my time at Harvard, and I bring that same rigor and care to every applicant I coach.
