I have advised 100+ applicants pursuing MBA and/or MPP applications to top institutions, helping applications secure admissions and a combined $500,000+ in scholarship money. Yes, that's over 10 candidates a year, with most of them receiving some form of financial aid! I will help you ethically secure scholarship funding where possible post-admissions (I.e., only after you've decided which school you'd like to attend!).

Hello! As a Wharton MBA graduate with honors and a former Admissions Fellow, I have a deep understanding of what top business schools are looking for in applicants. I am a Wharton MBA graduate (with Honors, 2021) and love helping prospective MBA students get into their dream MBA program - a daunting process that can be fun if done with an adequate amount of preparation. While at Wharton, I was an Admissions Fellow, helping run Wharton's (in)famous Team Based Discussions (TBDs) while also serving as a face of the school by running info sessions. I love helping others succeed and look forward to helping you through your admissions journey whether that is helping you through your school selection, application process, reviewing resumes / essays or prepping you for interviews. I was 3/3 during my admissions process, receiving scholarships from two top tier programs, and have successfully coached dozens of friends and colleagues over the past 5 years. During my MBA, I coached many other MBA students with career guidance, resume critiques, and interview prep. I have expertise in candidates with traditional backgrounds looking to differentiate their application, particularly those coming from finance backgrounds. I am particularly passionate about linking the seemingly unrelated pieces of candidate's backgrounds into a clear through line. I first encountered MBA coaching when I was applying to matriculate as an MBA in 2019. At that time, I realized how important an MBA coach could be, not only for the specialized toolset and knowledge base, but also for the encouragement during a high pressure application process. I am excited to dive into your background and help you uncover a narrative that will help you show you stand out to top MBA programs.

I've guided candidates through the full MBA admissions process for over 10 years — from school selection and application strategy through to essays, CV, letters of recommendation, and interview prep. Nearly all candidates who completed the full journey with me were admitted to their target school, including M7 programs (Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, Columbia, Booth, Kellogg, MIT Sloan) and top European schools (LBS, INSEAD, HEC Paris, Bocconi, IE, IESE, Cambridge, Oxford). As a BCG consultant with an engineering background, I bring a perspective that most admissions coaches don't have. I know what top employers actually look for in MBA graduates, which programmes open which doors, and how to position technical and STEM profiles for business schools — because I've done it myself. I hold an MBA from SDA Bocconi and Columbia Business School, and a mechanical engineering degree from Politecnico di Milano and the University of Illinois, so I've navigated this transition firsthand, on both sides of the Atlantic. I work on every element of the application: defining your narrative and positioning, selecting schools strategically, crafting essays that sound like you and not like a template, shaping your CV for impact, coaching recommenders on what to highlight, and preparing you for interviews. The goal is a cohesive application where every piece reinforces who you are and why you belong. If what you've read resonates, write to me.

As a Duke Fuqua MBA graduate and Forte Fellow, I bring both firsthand experience and a deep commitment to helping aspiring MBAs succeed. During my time at Fuqua, I served as a Career Fellow and Co-Director of the Sustainable Business & Social Impact Conference, gaining unique insights into what top business schools seek in applicants. My current role at Zillow as a Product Manager, along with my experience at LinkedIn in business transformation and marketing, gives me a comprehensive view of the intersection between business strategy and personal branding. I understand the challenges and opportunities of the MBA journey, especially for non-traditional candidates, and can guide you in crafting a compelling, authentic application that stands out to admissions committees. Let’s work together to make your MBA dreams a reality, building an application that reflects your unique strengths and aligns with your professional goals!
