Traditional Full-Time MBA Admissions Consultants

I got into Wharton with a GMAT of 710 and TOEFL of 106, both well below the school's average. I also received scholarship and fellowship offers from NYU Stern and Michigan Ross. My test scores didn't define my application. What stood out was my unique story: diverse career pivots across functions and markets, a niche in entrepreneurship, design thinking, and EdTech, and a track record of doing things others thought impossible (like publishing two books before ever working in corporate). I leaned into what made me different, not what made me "the same best" as everyone else. That's the biggest mistake I see applicants make: trying to fit into what they think MBA programs want. But admissions committees aren't looking for the "best" candidate. They're looking for a diverse class of unique individuals. Your job isn't to be perfect. It's to be distinctly you. I pursued a dual degree, MBA and Master's in Education, at Penn because I'm genuinely passionate about empowering others. That same passion drives my coaching today. I also know what it feels like to work with big-name consultants who don't remember your story and give generic advice. My approach is different. I offer personalized support and help you uncover and articulate what makes you stand out. Whether you're an international student, a career changer, or still deciding if an MBA is the right path, I'm here to help you figure it out.

I’m a current Berkeley Haas MBA who cracked admission to one of the most selective, culture‑driven programs out there (top 3 Bloomberg 2025) — and I know exactly what “Haas‑material” looks like to the admissions team from the inside. Shoot me a message to learn more.

I've navigated the full MBA journey end-to-end as a career-changer: admitted to Kelley School of Business (Indiana University) after pivoting from digital marketing and agency work, then recruited into McKinsey & Company — one of the most competitive post-MBA outcomes — landing both a Summer Associate internship and a full-time Associate offer. I can help with essay strategy, school selection, resume positioning, recommender coaching, and MBA interview prep, plus the full consulting recruiting process once you're on campus. Best fit for: career-changers (especially marketing, advertising, and agency backgrounds), Kelley applicants, non-traditional candidates, and MBAs targeting MBB/tier 2 consulting.

As a Harvard Business School MBA graduate and former Associate Partner at McKinsey & Company, I bring 12+ years of people leadership experience to helping individuals achieve their goals, from gaining admission to top MBA programs to breaking into and advancing within management consulting. I specialize in interview preparation, resume refinement, application strategy, and crafting compelling personal narratives, drawing on a cross-functional perspective across strategy, operations, and human capital. Whether you're applying to business school or aiming for a specific consulting firm, I'll help you build a strategy that's both analytically sharp and genuinely you. Let's connect and get you ready to perform under pressure.

As an alum of Harvard Business and Kennedy Schools, I navigated multiple graduate degree admissions processes. I’ve worked with candidates who have successfully applied to Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, MIT, and other top MBA programs. I started my career at Bain & Company and then worked in tech (biz ops and growth) before grad school. I have been closely involved in civic and public service opportunities including working at the US Treasury and serving as a State Delegate prior to school. While in my three-year MPP and MBA program, I worked in Venture Capital and Growth Equity investing at Norwest Venture Partners, Floodgate Ventures, and Summit Partners. I now run Growth Strategy @ Carta, a $7B tech co in Silicon Valley. I coach in my spare time because I love helping candidates distill their stories and present the best version of themselves to adcoms! When I applied, my partner was also interested in an MBA -- we wanted to maximize our chances of living in the same city during school, which led us to deeply research and contact admissions and alumni at all top 7 MBA programs to ensure we understood how we would be evaluated. After hundreds of hours of research myself, there is nothing I love more than being able to share that knowledge strategically & concisely with applicants. I particularly enjoy working with dual-degree candidates, candidates with public/non-profit sector experience and candidates interested in emerging tech and Venture Capital. As someone who applied with a partner, I can also speak to how various degree programs consider partner applications and strategy around managing dual-MBA families.

Seasoned tech professional who navigated the MBA admissions process in Europe/ Asia and transitioned careers post-MBA. Able to help candidates prepare both for MBA as well as job interviews, particularly Consulting, Tech startups, and Big Tech.

Stanford MBA / Stanford + Harvard JD admitee. I got into these programs after years of GMAT/LSAT study and concerted research on every element of the application process. I was asked to interview for Stanford MBA on day 1 and I was interviewed by Mary Barra (CEO of General Motors), so I have intimidating interview prep experience. I was accepted without being waitlisted. Looking back, I had an abysmal starting point, with a very naive concept of what a sterling essay or LoR might look like. But I meticulously sought out how to craft each element masterfully. I also developed a study plan that got me to a 770 GMAT (51 on math after a middling score) and helped me ace the logic and nearly ace the logical reasoning sections of the LSAT. I had spent over a year studying for the GMAT only to have a middle-of-the-road math score. Then I diligently pieced together a plan by studying those who aced the math portion and bumped my score to 51 (effectively the max) on the GMAT math. I did something similar for the LSAT logic sections (3/4 of the test). My pitch: I will concisely help you get from mediocre to maximum on every element of your application and test-taking process for MBA and JD programs. I have helped multiple people, with a relatively small amount of time and tight timeframe, get into Yale's JD program and interview for Stanford's MBA program with guidance it took me years to distill. I'll do the same for you. Once at Stanford, I led an initiative among 100+ incoming Stanford GSB students to collaboratively prepare for advanced-level coursework, resulting in the highest number of students in advanced courses in the school's history. Multiple classmates went on to pursue highly technical careers in part because of it. I'll help you strategize for this too!

I’ve helped applicants from a wide range of backgrounds—consulting, tech, finance, startups, and more—successfully gain admission to top-tier MBA programs. My coaching style is personalized, strategic, and honest. Whether you're just starting to explore your MBA goals or you're polishing final drafts, I’m here to help you bring out your most authentic, confident voice in your applications.

Welcome to my profile! As an MBA candidate at the Kellogg School of Management, I bring a wealth of experience from both the consulting and education sectors. Before Kellogg, I honed my analytical and strategic skills as an Associate Consultant at L.E.K. Consulting, where I worked on diverse projects that required innovative problem-solving. My journey also includes impactful teaching experience with Teach For America, where I developed strong communication and mentoring skills. I am passionate about helping prospective MBA students craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths and experiences. Let's work together to make your MBA dreams a reality!

Every person is unique, and I want to help you tell your story. My MBA clients have been admitted to Wharton (including Lauder), NYU, Berkeley, Columbia, Kellogg and more. As a former Kearney consultant and Wharton/Lauder admissions insider, I help candidates cut through the noise and present their authentic selves—because the best business leaders aren’t carbon copies. My approach blends 7+ years of management consulting rigor with hands-on recruiting and admissions experience. At Kearney, I led teams through complex transformations while honing my talent-spotting skills through recruiting efforts (turns out identifying great candidates isn’t so different from building high-performing consulting teams). And as a Wharton Admissions Fellow, I learned what really makes applications click (hint: it’s not just GMAT scores or fancy job titles). I strongly believe that diverse perspectives fuel innovation—a principle I now bring to my advisory work. As a Wharton Admissions Fellow and Lauder interviewer, I saw firsthand how powerful storytelling can bridge gaps in representation. I’m particularly passionate about helping underrepresented candidates navigate the MBA maze. Whether you’re switching industries, coming from a non-traditional background, or just don’t see yourself in those glossy MBA brochures, I’ll help you translate your unique experience into a compelling story. I am well-versed in global cultural immersion: I hold an MBA from Wharton and a Master of Arts in International Studies from Lauder, as well as Bachelor of Arts degrees in Communications and French from the University of Pennsylvania. Fluent in English, Mandarin, and French, I’ve seen how languages and identities shape leadership, and thus can help candidates turn their unique experiences into competitive advantages. Business schools need leaders who reflect the world—and I’m here to help you prove you belong in the room.
