MBA Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

Hey! I’m Michael, a Wharton MBA and Forbes 30 Under 30 founder who’s navigated a nontraditional path into business school and beyond. Before Wharton, I left medical school to build a company from scratch, growing it into one of the largest Asian-centric digital media brands in the world. Going through that journey shaped how I approached my own MBA applications and how I think about storytelling, positioning, and credibility in competitive admissions processes. I know firsthand that strong MBA applications are not about checking boxes or copying templates. They’re about clearly articulating your story, your decisions, and where you’re headed next. At Wharton, I saw how applicants from unconventional backgrounds can stand out when they frame their experiences with honesty, clarity, and intention. I also understand how confusing it can be to decide whether business school is right for you, how to choose programs, and how to translate your past into a compelling narrative for admissions committees. I work with applicants who want thoughtful, high-touch guidance, especially those coming from nontraditional backgrounds, career pivots, or entrepreneurial paths and have helped my clients gain admission to the top business schools in the world. My focus is on helping you craft a clear, authentic MBA narrative, refine your essays, and present your experiences in a way that feels true to you while still resonating with top programs. If you’re looking to tell your story with confidence and submit an application you genuinely stand behind, I’d love to help you through the process.

Greetings! I'm Alyssa, an MBA-MA graduate from The Wharton School (dual degree in International Studies with the Lauder Institute) and a former Manager at Bain & Company. I pride myself on having a strong background in both numbers and words—I graduated magna cum laude from Brown University with degrees in History and Economics, and was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa. At Bain & Company, I spent several years working on strategic projects for Fortune 500 clients across a diverse set of industries, sharpening my analytical skills and working on high-stakes problem solving. In addition to my consulting experience, my academic journey at Wharton and the Lauder Institute has equipped me with a deep understanding of global business strategy, cross-cultural communication, and leadership. This combination of practical experience and rigorous academic training, in addition to my strength in writing, allows me to help MBA applicants from all walks of life develop authentic, compelling applications that truly showcase their strengths. My goal is to guide you with the same level of dedication and strategic insight that I brought to my own life and career decisions, and help you work towards your goals with confidence and clarity.

Hi, I’m Karl — an MBA candidate at Kellogg with background in marketing and strategy. Before Kellogg, I spent 7 years in the marketing field, where I mastered the art of storytelling. I believe a great MBA coach doesn’t just tell you what to do — they help you uncover your unique strengths and position them effectively to admissions officers, like a brand manager. I specialize in helping candidates prepare for the behavior interviews: telling their story with clarity and confidence, with MBA admissions interviewer training and experience conducting 40+ mock interviews. As an international student who successfully navigated the challenges of networking and ultimately landed a US MBB offer, I understand firsthand the hurdles of trying to get an offer in the US. If you’re looking for guidance on your MBA journey — from interview prep to strategy and positioning — I’d be excited to help you succeed.

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 am an MS Engineering and MBA student at Harvard and I work with applicants who want support on interview prep and essay editing. I care about helping people who may not feel represented in this process, especially those coming from nontraditional or underserved backgrounds. I know how overwhelming it can feel to figure out your story, so I work with you to iterate and refine it until you feel grounded and confident. My goal is to help you show up as your strongest and most authentic self and help you prepare for interview day at HBS, practice in a way that feels natural, and make sure your essays reflect who you really are.

I built a standout business school application by owning my story instead of trying to fit a template. I learned how to pair real leadership experiences with my core values to create a narrative that felt both authentic and compelling. That approach helped me earn admission to Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, and Kellogg - including multiple merit scholarship offers. I now help applicants clarify what makes their journey unique and translate it into a focused, confident application story. You should work with me because I have lived both sides of the admissions process. I was rejected when I applied to deferred enrollment in college, and that experience pushed me to develop a smarter, more intentional strategy when I reapplied six years later. I know the sting of “no,” and I also know what it takes to turn that into a resounding “yes.” My goal is to help you avoid the mistakes I made and present the strongest, most authentic version of your story to top programs.
