Current Stanford MBA | Story Formation & Essay Help for MBA Applicants
Hi! I'm Cami. Originally from Los Angeles, I'm so excited to be back in California pursuing my MBA at Stanford Graduate School of Business. I spent the last 4 years before moving to Palo Alto in New York City, and I received my undergraduate degree from Vanderbilt University (anchor down!) in Nashville, Tennessee. Prior to the GSB, I worked in management consulting, where I found that I loved helping people grow, especially when it came to communication and storytelling. That's the same energy I bring to coaching. My goal is to help you find your voice, tell your story in a way that feels true to you, and make the process feel a little less stressful (and hopefully even a little fun). Outside of work and school, some of my passions include distance running, hiking, and traveling (48 countries and counting!). I can't wait to get to know you as we take on this journey together!
