Helped 10+ Applicants get into their Dream Schools Helped 5+ Applicants get into GSB & HBS As a First-Generation Harvard graduate and current MBA candidate at Stanford GSB, I bring a unique perspective to the coaching process, specializing in helping candidates shine in their essays and interviews. I have dedicated my career to creating equal opportunities for underrepresented groups.

I’m an HBS MBA (graduated with Distinction) who "swept" the top business schools: I earned admission to Stanford GSB, Wharton (Howard E. Mitchell Fellow), Columbia (Full Tuition), Yale SOM (Full Tuition), Berkeley Haas, and Harvard. I know exactly how to turn a "non-traditional" background into a winning offer. Before HBS, I was a CPA and consultant—not a typical feeder for private equity. Yet, through rigorous positioning and storytelling, I leveraged my MBA to pivot directly into Growth Equity at Summit Partners. I’ve since been featured in Poets & Quants and selected as an inaugural HBS RISE Fellow. My coaching is built on that same level of execution. I have coached 100+ applicants to define their edge, specifically helping career switchers and first-generation candidates punch above their weight class. I don’t just edit essays; I help you build a narrative that connects your personal story (resilience, identity, overcoming adversity) to your professional goals. What to expect: Direct, high-touch partnership. We will clarify your "why," sharpen your resume line-by-line, and build an interview strategy that is authentic and confident. If you want a coach who will push you to present the strongest, most ambitious version of your story, let’s get to work!

My educational experience includes a Harvard BA, Wharton MBA, Penn MSEd, and Oxford MPP. I've been coaching college applicants on-and-off for the past decade.

I'm experienced in supporting applicants through every stage of the MBA application process -- from school selection to application to interview to waitlist strategies.

Hey! Excited to see that you're looking to pursue higher ed! I know, you're probably thinking this writing is some form of automated AI slop (hint: it's not). I'm here to coach you because I found my post-Army grad school application experience more difficult in some ways than my time in the military(!) I want to help you navigate those challenges and achieve your goals. Really you're here to know how to answer: what matters most to you and why? right? It's a tough question but my quick tip is that if you start with that question and reflect on what you want in lift, it can be a great thought exercise for you, whether you get in or not.
