MBA Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

I applied only to Stanford GSB, in Round 3, and got in — without any external help or review. I built my application from the ground up, relying on reflection, storytelling, and clarity about what I wanted to say. I’ve since spoken with countless successful applicants, and one thing is clear: beyond your GMAT or GPA, it’s the power of your story that makes the difference. I can help you think deeply about your experiences, identify key themes, and choose stories that resonate. I’ll also help you explore what you might want to get out of business school and what potential paths you could write about — and pursue. Whether you’re just getting started or refining your final application, I’m here to help you make it real, personal, and unforgettable.

HBS '23 (MBA with Distinction) | Cambridge MPhil | Non-Traditional Background Coach (Former Diplomat) | Former International MBA Applicant | Coached ~60 people in last decade | My MBA admissions insights are shaped by personal rejection and success across two cycles. Former consulting coach & tutor at HBS. ------------ I bring a unique perspective to MBA admissions, having experienced both rejection and success firsthand. After initially being unsuccessful in my applications, I reapplied and secured admission to Harvard Business School (HBS) – without the help of a consultant. Through significant effort and independent research, I gained the insights needed to stand out. Looking back, having a mentor like myself – someone who understands the process and how to succeed – would have made the journey far more efficient. I hold a BA (Hons) in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics from the University of Warwick, an MPhil in Development Economics from Jesus College, University of Cambridge, and an MBA with Distinction from Harvard Business School. As a non-traditional candidate, I became a diplomat at just 25 and served in five High Commissions and Embassies, giving me a unique perspective on navigating the admissions process outside the traditional MBA applicant pool. Over the years, I have mentored numerous aspiring MBA candidates, guiding them through every step of the process, from crafting outstanding applications to excelling in interviews. My proven strategies, built on real-world experience and a track record of success, equip me to help candidates from all backgrounds achieve their MBA aspirations. I know what it takes to succeed because I have lived it – and I am here to help you do the same.
