Welcome to my profile! With an MBA from Duke's Fuqua School of Business and extensive leadership experience, I am passionate about helping aspiring, non-traditional MBA candidates achieve their dreams. I applied to business school as a nurse and mom of four kids, and I was older than the average candidate. I didn't use a coach and was still accepted into a T15 program. I understand the difficulties and complexities that come with life, especially as a working woman/mother, and I'd love to help you find your confidence and put your best foot forward. If this is you, don't count yourself out -- there is a ton of value that you would bring to a business school class. My background includes co-chairing Duke’s flagship MBA leadership event and engaging in various leadership roles, which have equipped me with a deep understanding of what top business schools seek in applicants. I have a proven track record of mentoring individuals through complex processes, from innovation management at Veterans Affairs to global health initiatives. Let's work together to craft a standout application that highlights your unique strengths and potential. Reach out to start your journey to a top MBA program!

As someone who was admitted to Booth, Wharton, Kellogg, Columbia, Haas, and NYU, I know firsthand how to craft a compelling MBA application that stands out. I’ve helped multiple applicants clarify their story, strengthen their essays, and position themselves for success—even when they thought they didn’t have the “perfect” background. I bring a mix of private equity and startup experience, a deep understanding of what top business schools are looking for, and a no-fluff coaching style that gets results. Whether you're figuring out your career narrative or polishing your final drafts, I’ll meet you where you are and help you hit submit with confidence.

I'm an enthusiastic and resourceful business professional with a decade of experience in venture capital, entrepreneurship and strategy consulting and an MBA from Harvard Business School. My 99th percentile GMAT score and prior work experience for a test prep company inform my approach to GMAT / GRE prep, but I know that the MBA application process is about more than just a test. I help my clients craft unique, holistic application materials that reflect their qualifications beyond scores and resume bullet points. As part of my admissions guidance I offer career coaching to help clients articulate what they want to get out of their MBA program and why. My versatile career across finance, consulting, and entrepreneurship as well as my prior experience as a career coach at HBS have informed my unique perspective on how to pivot between industries and get the most return on a top tier MBA program.

I'm Maryam, an MBA candidate at Wharton (Class of 2026), where I received a merit scholarship. I will be working at BCG in San Francisco after school. Before Wharton, I spent years at LinkedIn and Accenture sitting at the intersection of business strategy and technology, and developing a real conviction that we can get anything we want in this life as long as we have the right people beside us. That belief brings me to coaching! The MBA application process is deeply personal, and the best applications don't just list achievements, they reveal the unique person behind them. I know this process from the inside: what Wharton looks for, how to frame a non-linear story, and how to turn your specific background into a compelling case for why you, now. Whether you're building your school list, thinking about your essays, or preparing for interviews, I'll help you find the through-line in your story and tell it with clarity and confidence. For essays specifically, you are welcome to explore my general writing on my Substack: https://substack.com/@maryamaram
