Master's Programs Consultants, Events, & Resources

I am a public policy professional and have lived, worked, and studied in Panama, the United States, and China. I know what it's like to navigate highly selective admissions and hiring processes as an international applicant, and I'm here to share with you the insights that my clients and I have used land spots at the Ivy League, Oxbridge, M7, and Schwarzman Scholars. Let's work together to achieve your master's and career goals!

I've been coaching candidates through Masters admissions for over 10 years, across MiM, Masters in Finance, Engineering (mechanical, electronic, computer science), and Data Science programmes. I've worked with 400+ students overall, and nearly all who completed the full journey were admitted to their target programme, including top schools such as LBS, INSEAD, HEC Paris, Bocconi, IE, IESE, Imperial, Cambridge, Oxford, MIT, Stanford, Columbia and ETH Zurich. I hold an MBA from SDA Bocconi and Columbia Business School, a mechanical engineering degree from Politecnico di Milano and the University of Illinois, and I work as a BCG consultant. This combination means I understand both technical and business-oriented programmes from the inside — whether you're applying to MSc Engineering, MiM, Masters in Finance, or looking to transition from a STEM background into a business programme. I cover the full process: school selection, application strategy, CV, personal statement and essays, letters of recommendation, and interview prep. The goal is a cohesive application where every piece reinforces who you are and why you're a strong fit for that specific programme. If what you've read resonates, write to me.

I know how overwhelming the graduate school process can feel — because I've spent years on the inside watching talented people struggle to tell their story in a way that truly lands. Having worked in admissions at Georgetown University, the University of Cincinnati, and George Washington University, I've sat across from hundreds of applicants and reviewed thousands of applications. That experience gave me a deep understanding of what committees are genuinely looking for, and more importantly, how to help you present your best self with confidence. My goal has always been to make this process feel less intimidating and more empowering for each student I meet with What drives me is seeing people get into programs they once thought were out of reach. As a current MBA student myself, I haven't forgotten what it's like to be on your side of the process — the self-doubt, the late nights, the endless second-guessing. I've helped students navigate tight deadlines, sharpen their personal statements, and build strategies that resulted in students enrolling in their dream programs. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all advice, because your story is unique and deserves to be told that way. When you work with me, you're getting someone who genuinely cares about where you're headed and will be with you every step of the way.

I’m a CMU Master of Science in Software Management (MSSM) graduate and former Student Admissions Ambassador who has coached candidates into product, software, data, and tech-business master’s programs. My approach blends product strategy, engineering leadership, and business storytelling: we clarify your career narrative, craft impact-driven resumes and statements, and align target schools with your skill gaps and goals. I’ve led applicants end-to-end from discovery and school selection to essays, referrals, interviews, and final decisions. I specialize in PM/Software/Data tracks and international student guidance (program fit, funding, visas, internships, and U.S. recruiting). If you want tactical, industry-grounded coaching with clear milestones and accountability, I’m in your corner.

Welcome to my profile! I hold a Master of Education from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and bring experience across educational leadership, learning design, mentoring, research, and innovation. I have worked as a Learning Experience Designer and Product Designer & Researcher with MIT’s Teaching Systems Lab, and I have also spent years supporting the growth and formation of young people through teaching, mentoring, programme design, and educational leadership. I have coached 25+ individuals into top colleges and graduate programmes across the US, helping them navigate school selection, essays, interviews, CVs, and broader application strategy. My approach is shaped not only by my professional experience, but also by my deep belief that education is about helping people discover and express who they are called to become. I help applicants identify their strongest stories, communicate their experiences with depth and clarity, and present themselves in ways that are both compelling and grounded. Because of my background in educational research and strategic design, I understand both the human and evaluative side of admissions. If you are looking for a coach who will help you think clearly, write authentically, and put forward an application that genuinely reflects your strengths, I would be glad to work with you.

I recently navigated the master's admissions process myself and earned admission to the University of Michigan Ross School of Business Master of Supply Chain Management program, which is globally recognized, after transitioning from a career in Technology Risk at EY. Going through the application process gave me a deep understanding of how to craft a compelling application, tell a cohesive career story, and position prior experiences to support future career goals. I would love to help applicants refine their resumes, develop authentic personal narratives, strengthen their personal brand, and approach networking strategically throughout the admissions process. Whether you're exploring graduate school, applying to specialized business master's programs, or pivoting careers, my goal is to help you present your experiences with confidence while building an application that genuinely reflects your authentic self and unique strengths.

I'm Stanford GSB MBA/MS alum who has excelled in climate and impact work across roles spanning social entrepreneurship, climatetech and renewables consulting and development, and investing. I've also uniquely been through the process of applying to top schools from abroad (Mongolia). I know what it takes to pivot, to do a dual degree program, to apply to the U.S. from abroad, and to articulate the values that will make your application stand out. I have experience helping U.S. and international coachees with unconventional backgrounds gain admissions to top programs and get selected for life-changing scholarships. I am especially passionate about working with people who are focused on climate change and the environment. I want to help you uncover and authentically showcase your strengths so you can make moves toward a career that makes you tick. Whether you need help on big-picture essay framing or nitty-gritty details, I'm excited to work with you!

I can help you prepare a sole policy degree application or a joint degree application. This includes support on the quantitative resume, guidance on supplemental materials, and positioning private sector-oriented applicants with a career transition towards public service.

I’m qualified to coach in this category because I’ve personally navigated the global master’s admissions journey and helped hundreds of others do the same- successfully. I hold a Master in Management-Grande Ecole from ESCP Business School (FT Global Top-5) (with admits into HEC, LBS, LSE, ESSEC, Duke, etc.) and bring 7+ years of international experience across investment banking, strategy consulting, corporate strategy, and venture capital, working with firms such as Morgan Stanley, PwC, RTL Group, Citi, and Adler Group. This means I don’t just understand applications on paper, I understand how top schools evaluate profiles, potential, and long-term career fit, and how that translates into real outcomes after graduation. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of international candidates from diverse academic, cultural, and professional backgrounds, many of whom have secured strong admits across Europe, the UK, North America, and Asia. My reviews reflect that track record, but they’re only one data point. I strongly believe the best way to assess fit is a 15-minute conversation, where you’ll quickly see how I think, work, and challenge you. My style is straightforward, honest, and high-standards. I don’t over-promise, sugarcoat feedback, or “please” clients. I focus on clarity, precision, and execution, because that’s what top schools reward. If something doesn’t make sense for your profile, I’ll tell you. If something can be improved, we’ll fix it properly. 🎓 Programs I Support Master in Management (MiM) Master in Finance (MFin) Master in Financial Engineering (MFE) Specialized Master’s programs in Marketing, Sustainability, Strategy, Data, and Engineering-related fields 🌍 Geographies I Cover United States Western Europe (France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, Italy, etc.) United Kingdom Singapore China & Hong Kong If you’re looking for real guidance, not scripted advice, and want to approach your master’s applications with strategy, integrity, and confidence- I’d be happy to help.

As a Columbia & UChicago admit with a background in Finance and Social Impact, I want to help diverse candidates throughout their graduate application journeys and beyond!
