MBA Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

With an MBA from Oxford's Said Business School and a Master in Public Policy from Oxford's Blavatnik School of Government, I bring a blend of business and social impact into my coaching. My professional journey includes roles at Bain & Company, The Global Fund, and the Inter-American Development Bank, where I focused on finance and strategy. I successfully mentored and coached individuals in the MBA process, from navigating and selecting which MBA were the best "fit" (1 year, 2 year, or part-time MBA programs, dual or joint degrees; in the US, UK, or Europe), providing guidance in their application (e.g., reviewing CV or resumes, personal statements or essays) and preparing for interviews for Oxford SBS and other MBA programs in the US. Additionally, I provide support in applying for graduate scholarships, including MBA scholarships, as a scholar and recipient of highly competitive programs. Whether you're refining your educational strategy, applications, essays or preparing for interviews, I look forward to helping you succeed in your MBA aspirations!

First-generation college student Accepted to HBS, Booth, MIT, Columbia, and NYU Stern despite 720 GMAT and overrepresented demographic

I am a JD / MBA candidate at Harvard Business School and Harvard Law School. I have 5 years of professional experience in high finance.

I just completed one of the most competitive MBA application cycles in history, earning admission to MIT Sloan (where I'll be attending), Columbia Business School, Kellogg, Booth, and Stern—with interviews at 6 of the 7 M7 schools I applied to. But what truly qualifies me as a coach isn't just my own success—it's my passion for teaching. I currently guest lecture at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business and have spent years mentoring Accenture analysts, teaching underprivileged children in India, and leading pro-bono consulting projects. My family's legacy in education taught me that the best coaches don't just know the material; they genuinely care about their students' success. As a strategy consultant at Accenture for 4 years, I've honed the storytelling, analytical, and strategic thinking skills that make MBA applications successful. I've lived this process recently and intimately, tackling diverse essay formats and navigating competitive interview processes. I succeeded as a public university graduate breaking into M7 schools and understand how to position unique backgrounds as strengths. Whether you're a consultant looking to differentiate yourself, a public university grad aiming for M7, or someone with a mission-driven story to tell, I'll bring a data-driven, personalized approach to help you craft a winning narrative.

Booth MBA with a background in marketing at NielsenIQ and Amazon, where I focused on product positioning and consumer behavior. I apply that same lens to MBA applications: clarity, coherence, and a story that holds up under scrutiny. I have worked closely with peers on essays, resumes, and interviews, helping them surface what is genuinely distinctive and align it across every touchpoint. My approach is structured, direct, and collaborative, so you leave not only with a stronger application, but with a narrative you can confidently own in the interview room.

Is a full-time MBA right for you? Which schools should you target? What career path fits your goals? I can help you answer these questions with clarity and confidence.

I know firsthand how challenging MBA applications and post-MBA recruiting can be and how to avoid common pitfalls. I specialize in supporting applicants interested in general management, consulting, and Leadership Development Program (LDP) roles, with particular expertise in Chicago Booth, Duke Fuqua, and BYU Marriott. Let’s work together to craft a strategy that helps you stand out, get admitted, and launch the next chapter of your career!
