Last Mile Application Polish
You've done the hard work, so this package is for getting your application across the finish line with confidence. I'll do a full read of everything: essays, resume, short answers, and any supplemental materials, looking for inconsistencies, rough edges, and anything that isn't quite landing the way you intended. You'll get specific, actionable feedback with enough time to make real edits before your deadline. 1. Comprehensive Application Review -Full application read-through: Essays, resume, short answers, extracurriculars, and supplemental materials reviewed as a complete package, not in isolation. -Cohesion check: Assessment of whether your application is building a consistent, compelling picture of who you are across every component. -Specific, actionable feedback: Detailed notes on what to adjust so you know exactly what to work on before submission. 2. Final Edits -Essay and resume polish: Line-by-line feedback on written materials to sharpen clarity, fix anything awkward, and make sure your voice is coming through. -Short answers and forms: Review of application data entries, optional essays, and additional information sections for tone, completeness, and missed opportunities. -Error and consistency check: A final pass for grammar, formatting, and any factual inconsistencies across your materials. *Recommended to purchase this package at least 2 weeks ahead of deadline to maximize impact*
What's included
Coaching will be delivered primarily through asynchronous feedback, with an option for a 30-minute call to discuss any necessary, more complex recommendations. What you can expect from me: -Turnaround time: I return feedback within 24–72 hours on written materials, and often faster. If a deadline is pressing, let me know upfront and I'll prioritize accordingly. -Personalized coaching: My coaching adapts to you, not the other way around. -Clear, direct feedback: I don't just flag what's working and what's not. I explain why, and I'll push you past surface-level answers when I know there's something stronger underneath. -Organization: All materials, feedback, and drafts are tracked in a shared Google Drive folder so you always know where things stand and nothing gets lost in email chains.
- A full pre-submission review of every component of your application
- Specific written feedback on what to strengthen before your deadline
- Polished essays and resume with a final line-by-line edit pass
- A cohesion check so your application tells one clear, consistent story

Ross Interviewer | Turning Unconventional Backgrounds Into Winning Stories
I started college convinced I was going to be a doctor until I realized I was a lot more interested in the systems around healthcare than the science behind it. That pivot led me to healthcare consulting, then to Ross for my MBA, where I went in looking for strategic depth, leadership reps, and the chance to think beyond healthcare, and came out ready to thrive at BCG with a much sharper sense of what I'm capable of. A lifelong curiosity has followed me throughout; as a kid I asked "why" so relentlessly that the adults around me were genuinely exhausted, and that hunger to understand has never really left. I bring it to my work, my career, and to every person I coach: getting into your story, finding your "why," and figuring out how to tell it in a way that actually lands. I believe the best coaching starts with understanding someone as a whole person, not just a resume or a case answer. I navigated my own MBA process with undiagnosed ADHD and a GPA that didn't tell the full story, and figuring out how to frame that honestly and powerfully changed everything for me. If something in your background feels complicated or hard to explain, that's exactly where I love to dig in. I'm a California girl living in Chicago, where the weather is a daily exercise in acceptance, but the city has genuinely won me over. Sports are a big part of my life - UCLA women's basketball, volleyball, and gymnastics; Michigan football; the 49ers - I'm drawn to the thrill of competition and the camaraderie that comes with it. I love cooking ambitious meals and hosting dinners, where watching friends from different parts of my life find each other became the best part. I've visited 40+ countries across six continents, am rarely more than ten feet from my dog Hazel, and recently turned a board game I invented as a ten-year-old into a vibe-coded online game. Creative projects, learning something new every day, and saying yes to things I haven't tried yet - these are what fuel me. Sounds like a good fit but having concerns on cost? Let's chat and see if we can work something out. Cancellation Policy: Please cancel or reschedule at least 2 hours before our session. Late changes and no-shows will forfeit 50% of the scheduled session time.
