Hi! I have more than 30 years of professional experience across multiple geographies and industries - I've worked in senior, client-facing roles in finance within investment banking, management consulting, healthcare, international trade & development and even luxury travel. When I decided to leave my finance career of 15 years at J.P. Morgan (both New York & London) in 2015, I identified some of the most fulfilling aspects of my various roles as a manager – building trust-based client relationships; developing young professionals to have the skills and confidence to reach their full potential; coaching people through pivotal career junctions – and embarked on a completely new professional path in education, admissions and career consulting. Over the past 10 years, as a senior MBA admissions consultant with one of the leading consulting firms, I have successfully partnered with hundreds of talented young professionals from all geographies, backgrounds, industries and functions via highly tailored, 1:1 engagements. I’ve not only helped my clients achieve their career and education goals, which include offers to all the top US & European business schools, but also secure millions of dollars in scholarship funding, prestigious fellowships, and most importantly the confidence, clarity and purpose to step forward successfully into the next stage of their educational and professional journeys. As an American living in London and who has also lived, studied, and/or worked in France, Switzerland, Mexico and Brazil, I am deeply knowledgeable of the numerous international educational pathways at both the undergraduate and graduate level that exist for ambitious, globally minded young people. Over the past decade, my admissions consulting practice has expanded to include supporting high school students, undergraduates and recent graduates - from all over the world – who aspire to matriculate in leading universities in the UK (UCAS, including Oxbridge), Europe, and Asia at either the undergraduate or non-MBA post-graduate level (law, marketing/brand strategy, data science, finance + economics, medicine + dentistry (inc post-bac), policy/international affairs, architecture, teaching, etc). I’ve also successfully supported countless applicants in securing highly competitive scholarships and have occasionally advised on NCAA sports recruiting. I completed my MBA at Columbia Business School in 2001 with honors and concentrations in Finance and Entrepreneurship. I’ve maintained close ties to Columbia by assisting the Admissions team as a CBS Ambassador and candidate interviewer, gaining deep insight into the admissions process. I also have extensive experience on the on-campus corporate recruiting side, having been actively involved in J.P. Morgan’s summer and full-time recruiting programs at University of Chicago Booth, Yale SOM, and UNC Chapel-Hill in the US, and at Oxford University in England. Finally, I’m very attuned to the test preparation process. I had the opportunity to deploy my love of teaching by leading GMAT, GRE and SAT test prep classes in the mid-1990s at The Princeton Review’s then newly founded Mexico City office, whilst I worked full-time at the American Chamber of Commerce of Mexico. I draw on my understanding of the test prep process to be a sounding board, advisor and supportive confidant to my admissions consulting clients as they often undertake their testing process in parallel.

I hold master’s degrees from both NYU and Clemson, so I understand firsthand what it’s like to apply to competitive graduate programs - and how to stand out. My 11+ years working in admissions at top universities have given me an insider’s perspective on what committees look for and how candidates can distinguish themselves. As an ICF-Certified Coach, I bring a supportive yet strategic approach to guiding applicants through the graduate admissions process. From refining your personal statement to highlighting your academic and professional achievements, I’ll help you craft an application that demonstrates your readiness and confidence.

Welcome to my profile! With 20+ years experience in Admissions Consulting, Career Coaching, Education, and Recruitment, I've supported many candidates gain admission to top master's programs on the planet. My values are deeply rooted in quality education, global interconnectedness, and diversity & inclusion. If you're targeting a seat at some of the best schools in the world, working together, I'm confident we can get you there. As former Director of Recruitment for the Global MBA program at ESSEC Business School (Paris, France & Singapore) I know exactly what gives MBA applicants a competitive profile in the eyes of admissions committees. Previously in my role at France's prestigious Sciences Po, I offered countless workshops on how to write an impactful CV, as well as how to interview effectively. Prior to this, I worked in admissions & recruitment at Long Island University in New York. Additionally, as an English teacher for many years, most recently at the prestigious École de Guerre, you can rest assured that your essays will be critiqued for English grammar and spelling with the eye of a hawk. In 2020, I created Candidate Coach to do admissions consulting full time. Currently based between Paris, France and New York City - centrally located and globally connected to team up for appointments, no matter what your time zone in the world.

◆ 5 years of experience as a grad school admissions coach, with a focus on STEM programs and a skew towards international applicants ◆ Coached 50+ candidates to land acceptances at their dream schools, including Stanford, Harvard, and other top universities ◆ Personally accepted to Stanford's Management Science and Engineering program in 2019 and graduated at the top of the class ◆ After graduation, spent 6 years as a management consultant at McKinsey, then launched an investment fund called Par 3 Partners Five years ago, I built a grad school admissions toolkit that helped me get accepted into Stanford's MS&E program -- my dream program at my dream school. Since then, I’ve refined that toolkit by working with dozens of students -- continuously adding, pruning, and sharpening it into a highly targeted, repeatable system that works. For example, I'm thesis-first, meaning that before you write a single word, I work with you to define the one sentence an admissions officer should be able to repeat about you after a six-minute read. Today, I systematically train candidates on this program, coaching them to think and communicate the way that top programs expect: powerful, confident, and compelling. I work with candidates across the full admissions cycle, from high-leverage, last-mile prep for those nearing deadlines, to end-to-end partnerships covering program selection, interview prep, and early-stage essay development. Clients frequently describe my feedback as direct and precise, but warm and supportive. I won’t sugarcoat, and I won’t let vague thinking or unclear communication slide, but I’m deeply invested in each candidate’s success and fully bought into helping them perform at their best when it matters most. If you’re looking for someone with the experience to show you a process that actually works, I’d be excited to partner with you.
