I am a Harvard Business School graduate and have helped over ten students through their application journey over the past couple years. I create a tailored coaching program to fit your specific situation and guide you through the application and interview process. As an international student with a finance background I know exactly what it takes to stand out among all other applicants. I look forward to working with you!

Hey all! I'm offering discounted coaching since I'm building up a client base again. I previously charged up to $200/hour so enjoy the discounts while they last! I was an extremely active coach back in 2022 on Leland and several other platforms before I started at McKinsey and had to pause due to contractual obligations--feel free to check my reviews on Leland. I have extensive experience coaching across all aspects of MBA admissions: 1. I have helped 30+ students get into top MBA programs, including HBS, Stanford GSB, Wharton, etc. I also have experience helping several students get into top executive or non-traditional programs (Stanford MSx, Wharton EMBA, etc.). 2. I am a former professional writer, and I have helped almost all of my students brainstorm, recraft, tune, and edit their essays. This is primarily what I help with for MBA applications. 3. I spent years tutoring standardized tests (GRE, GMAT, SAT). While I no longer offer tutoring services, I can help you develop a study plan and tackle weak points. 4. I am a professional resume reviewer for both MBA admissions and consulting applications. 5. Additionally, I was an Admissions Fellow for the Wharton MBA program

I have personally been admitted to several M7 and T15 MBA programs, including Chicago Booth, Columbia Business School, and Cornell Johnson — with over USD 250K in merit scholarships. Additionally, I am a recipient of some of the most prestigious and competitive graduate fellowships in the world, such as the Schwarzman Scholars program at Tsinghua University with only a 3% acceptance rate annually. Since then, I have advised 50+ traditional and non-traditional applicants to top business schools globally, including Harvard Business School, Stanford GSB, The Wharton School, Columbia, Kellogg, Booth, MIT Sloan, INSEAD, London Business School, Haas, Cornell Johnson, and Dartmouth Tuck, etc. I have developed a success framework and templates that can guide you through the MBA application process and maximize your chances.

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.

My educational experience includes a Harvard BA, Wharton MBA, Penn MSEd, and Oxford MPP. I've been coaching college applicants on-and-off for the past decade. Beyond my own successful experience applying to MBA programs, I conducted admissions interviews for the Wharton MBA program, evaluating 60+ Wharton applicants as an employee of the admissions office. I'm experienced in supporting applicants through every stage of the MBA application process -- from school selection to application to interview to waitlist strategies.

Since graduating from Stanford GSB, I have been helping prospective students from all over the world gain admission to top MBA programs. I have more than 15 years of professional experience working with top admissions consulting companies.

I am not an admissions expert! I am simply someone who has experienced the MBA process firsthand and with excellent coaches (shout out to my MLT MBAP coach Natasha!). I applied to 5 programs and secured MBA offers from 4: Stanford GSB, Wharton, MIT, and Tuck ($140k fellowship). The process was long, arduous, and at times emotionally taxing, but one of the most reflective periods of my life. I am passionate about supporting others through this process and helping you craft a compelling application that is true to your story. Let's connect and discuss how I can support you in your MBA aspirations!
