Invaluable PhD Application Guidance

Working with Madeleine was an absolute game-changer. She guided me through my PhD application—helping me sharpen my research proposal, fine-tune my personal statement, and practice for interviews until I felt completely confident. Her insights are razor-sharp, and her encouragement kept me motivated. Thanks to her strategic feedback and support, I was accepted into my top-choice program. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Amazing coach - Provided tons of support

Tim is one of the best coaches out there! Together we worked on my applications to Booth and HBS. He helped shaped my personal narrative into an authentic compelling story. Thanks to Tim, I'm happy to say that I submitted applications that I am truly proud of. You won't regret working with Tim for your MBA applications.

Very knowledgeable, genuine, and kind!

I worked with Jarnickae on my interview preparation for the Harvard Business School MS/MBA program. I am really grateful that I connected with him and got the chance to prep with him. From our very first session he created an encouraging environment that allowed me to practice authentically while still pushing me beyond my comfort zone. After each mock interview he delivered detailed, actionable feedback – celebrating what I did well and zeroing in on precise areas I could refine. His deep knowledge about finance and tech was apparent as he could give nuanced feedback on my answers. I really appreciated that. It's not easy to find coaches that really know your industry back to front. His insights into the interview style gave me a clear sense of what to expect on the interview day. Beyond the technical preparation, Jarnickae bolstered my confidence; I walked into my interview feeling calm, prepared, and genuinely excited to share my story. Throughout the process, he checked in with me and gave me very constructive advice. If you’re looking for a coach who is thoughtful, candid, and fully invested in your success, I can’t recommend Jarnickae highly enough.

Accepted to HBS and Stanford GSB (as a re-applicant!)

Your guidance and wisdom over the last few months were the keys to allowing me to gain admission to HBS after being denied last year. I consider myself very lucky to have been introduced to you. Your style of feedback is very pleasant and highly effective.

Excellent!

The strengths listed capture it all. I regret wasting my time with anyone but Kelsey. It was so easy and motivating to work with her. She really sought to get to know me to help bring the best to my applications. She built up a level of trust through her patience and genuine interest in my stories (those that made it into the app and didn't). I recommend her to anyone I know who mentions thinking about an MBA at all. I worked with Kelsey on six different applications which required many different essays. She trusted my vision when I had one and gave good steers when I felt lost in the drafting process.

Highly Recommend Kelsey!

Reapplying is tough, but Kelsey gave me hope that this time could be different — and it was! After trying to navigate the process on my own with little success, she helped me bring out my unique story and showcase what makes me, me. She really took the time to understand my background and goals, which made all the difference in how my application came together. Her process is structured and incredibly effective. It helped me get clarity on my goals and ensured I was ready for everything — even my interview. When I got the call over a month after submitting, I didn’t need to scramble because she’d already prepped me so well early on. It was such a relief not to start from scratch! Kelsey also has so many school-specific insights and resources, which made every step more manageable. On top of that, when my circumstances changed during the process, she was flexible, guiding me through it all without missing a beat. If you’re looking for someone who’ll bring out your best and keep you focused every step of the way, I can’t recommend Kelsey enough!

Kelsey Is The True MVP

Even though I always wanted to pursue my MBA, I had doubts about applying to my dream program as it was a very selective business school (T15) and convinced myself that I wasn’t a strong enough candidate, having a low GPA & no-brand undergraduate program. When I connected with Kelsey, she provided new perspective and told me that I can be optimistic about my chances. Since MBA essays can be a very unnatural way of writing about yourself, Kelsey really helped me craft a “unique” and “personal” story on my essays that I believe was key to my admission at my dream program. She was extremely quick on her responses and even if Kelsey’s responses were quick, it helped me move from inch by inch to taking leaps in my essays. Kelsey should be the golden standard of how an admission consultant should be and as a former skeptic of using admission consultants in the past, Kelsey really changed my perspective so if you’re ever looking for a consulting service or MBA coach, Kelsey is your person and you will not regret it!

A+ Interview Prep

Working with Kelsey for interview preparation was game-changing. The interview guide she provided me and our mock session gave me the confidence to go into five interviews in a short time frame. She helped me nail down timing and tell my story in a concise and clear way. She provided me with tactics in case I got stuck and questions to ask the interviewer after. Highly recommend Kelsey to those looking to crush the interview phase.

A Literal God Send

Kelsey is 1000% worth the investment! Before beginning the process of applying to business school, I had no idea where to start. I thought I didn’t have a shot at my top schools with my slightly below average test scores and what felt like an unoriginal story. Kelsey came in with kindness, empathy, patience, and tough love when needed to help me reframe my entire perspective about my story and my accomplishments. She is also incredibly efficient, thorough, and extremely knowledgeable about the admissions process — not to mention easily accessible when I bombarded her with questions and panicky messages. I am lucky enough to say that I was accepted into every school that I applied to (some even with scholarship), and I don’t think that would’ve happened if it weren’t for Kelsey. She believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself — which is exactly what you need in an admissions consultant. I truly couldn’t have gone through this process without her!
