Kerry Patriarca was absolutely instrumental in my MBA application journey. From helping me craft and refine my goals and essays, to preparing me for the interview process, her guidance was thoughtful and deeply personalized. She is incredibly responsive and professional in her feedback. She pushes you when she knows you can do better, while always being your biggest cheerleader. What truly sets Kerry apart is her inside knowledge of what HBS is looking for, grounded in her experience working in Admissions. I can say with confidence that I would not have gotten into HBS without her support, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. I was accepted into Wharton and HBS and sincerely owe it to Kerry. Work with her - you will NOT regret it.

Was lovely working with Kerry. She helped me so much with our HBS mock prep sessions, and I ended up with admission to Harvard!

Working with Timothy was one of the most impactful parts of my MBA application journey. He quickly understood my background and helped me shape a powerful, cohesive narrative that truly reflected my story. What stood out most was his ability to pinpoint where my profile was strongest and push me to showcase those moments with clarity and intention. His feedback was thoughtful, direct, and always tailored to each school’s expectations. Beyond essays, his mock interviews were incredibly helpful and made a real difference in how confidently I approached interviews. We worked together over a while now, and throughout the process, Timothy consistently showed genuine care for my success. He was flexible, supportive, and committed from start to finish. He is truly exceptional and a lifesaver during the MBA application process. I highly recommend his coaching!

Tim is truly exceptional, and I strongly recommend you secure your spot with him, especially to my fellow veterans. Tim's genuine enthusiasm and belief in my candidacy crystallized my decision to seek his expertise. He exceeded every expectation when it came to helping me translate my military experience into compelling narratives and a polished resume. His feedback throughout every step of the admissions process was clear, impactful, and tailored to me. He helped me identify the most powerful moments from my service and connect them authentically to my goals. Tim has a wealth of knowledge regarding the process and nuances of each program. As a client, there was no doubt in my mind that Tim was fully invested in my success. I cannot thank him enough for his dedication and support during this pivotal chapter of my life.

Mihir was extremely helpful in elevating my resume! He suggested clear strengths and weaknesses and helped me showcase my strongest points. I would very highly recommend Mihir!

I had a wonderful experience working with Claire on my MBA applications. I was going through a particularly difficult time and had nearly given up on applying altogether, but during our initial consultation, Claire gave me the confidence and energy I needed to move forward. She helped me craft strong essays by pushing me to dig into my “why.” Her feedback was always thoughtful and candid, helping me to stop overthinking and focus my energy where it mattered most. After more than ten iterations, I submitted my applications with full confidence, knowing they represented the most authentic version of myself. Beyond her knowledge of the admissions process, Claire provided unwavering support and empathy as I balanced applications with family responsibilities. Her “can-do” attitude is infectious, and her enthusiasm kept me motivated even during the most challenging weeks. I was fortunate to be admitted into my dream school and truly could not have done it without her. Even now, she continues to offer support despite her busy schedule. I feel lucky to have found Claire; she has not only been a fantastic coach but a trusted mentor and friend as well.

Emily helped me tremendously. I’d been thinking about applying to business schools for a while, but when I finally started the process, I was way over my head. Working with Emily was my saving grace. She knows exactly what these schools are looking for and challenges you to deeply self-reflect, which can feel tough and overwhelming at times. Emily brought out the best in me, as she is excellent in extracting the “who am I” and “why business school,” all while being direct, upfront, and your biggest supporter. She helped get me into my dream school, and I cannot recommend her enough! Emily is a wizard and a true professional.

Partnering with Claire was an absolute pleasure. She brought energy and expertise to everything we worked on. She was knowledgeable, easy to work with, and committed to my process. Claire challenged me to go deeper. She was balanced in her approach, knowing when to push back and when to be supportive. If you want to put your best foot forward and enjoy the journey, work with Claire.

Working with Ellen was an absolute game changer to my entire application process! If it was not for her expertise and wisdom, this would have never happened. From beginning to end, Ellen was there for every question, she was honest when she needed to be, and she instilled an immense sense of confidence in me. Through every bump, Ellen was there to guide me and encourage me through every step of the way, and never did I feel that I was doing this alone. I felt like I was in a boxing match with a world champion coach in my corner. We overcame big challenges while being a non-traditional student, and I am confident that without her help I would not have been able to develop such a quality application that highlights all of my strengths. I'd make sure to use her services if I went through this process again, and I STRONGLY encourage other students to book time with her, it will change everything. As the title says, WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY...AND THEN SOME!

Kerry was an outstanding coach throughout my interview preparation. She ran a highly realistic mock interview and then provided incredibly detailed, thoughtful feedback that went far beyond surface-level tips. Her guidance helped me refine not just my answers, but my overall presence, structure, and confidence going into the interview. I’m extremely grateful for Kerry’s support and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for rigorous, high-quality interview preparation.
