With a 299 GRE, I received over $500,000 in MBA scholarships, including multiple full-tuition awards to Top 10 business schools, proving that admissions success isn’t defined by a test score, but by your story, strategy, and self-awareness. As someone who’s been in your shoes, I know how to help you craft a powerful, authentic narrative that resonates with top programs. I specialize in helping applicants highlight their unique leadership, personal journey, and impact. The same approach that helped me turn rejection into results and ultimately earn admission to my dream schools.

Jeff is a non-traditional success story who pivoted from a Physiology & Developmental Biology major and a planned medical career to business, launching into now 10-year career in healthcare strategy.

Earning a scholarship to Duke’s Fuqua School of Business, Jeff accelerated his growth and is now a Manager at Deloitte Consulting’s Healthcare practice, where he earned an early promotion. With years of experience leading Deloitte/Duke recruiting and onboarding MBAs, Jeff knows how to help both non-traditional and traditional candidates showcase their strengths and stand out. Let Jeff help you craft your own success story.

I received offers from two top MBA programs (CBS and MIT) and spent years supporting applicants build application profiles and nail for interviews to get school offers. I also helped a few manage themselves off a waitlist. Finally, I volunteer to interview candidates at Columbia Business School.

Welcome to my profile! I have a B.S in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford and a Harvard MBA (class of '23.) My background is a bit non-linear - I work full-time in venture capital, and prior to my MBA I worked across engineering and operations teams in deep tech startups. If you are an engineer or tech person looking to use an MBA pivot to business or escape the engineering silo, I have been in your shoes. If you are already coming from a business or finance role, I can help you apply a new design-thinking and iterative lens to your essay and MBA. My superpower is helping people get from 0 - 1, and I can't wait to help you discover and craft your unique narrative.

Hi there! My name is George Lankas, Stanford GSB class of 2027. I was fortunate enough to receive acceptances to 3 top MBA programs (GSB, Wharton, and Tuck). I ran a tutoring company as a student at Georgetown University, where I helped classmates ace Econ classes and get past writer’s block on essay. I also offer career coaching – after transitioning from an IB oriented role to client facing Private Banking, I know how tricky the pivot can be! I’m passionate about helping people get into their dream MBA program or get their dream job – I want to be a partner and asset throughout your process to ensure you can make your goals become a reality.

I’m a Harvard Business School graduate who got in on sheer grit — no family connections, no employer sponsorship, and definitely no 760 GMAT. In fact, I took the test eight times and ended up with a 690. I wasn’t the obvious admit. I didn’t come from a mega fund. I wasn’t a check the box candidate. But I understood the formula — and once you understand how HBS and the GSB really make decisions, your chances of admission increase exponentially. There’s a strategy to this process that most applicants — and even many coaches — miss. I’ve lived it. I’ve helped others do it. And I only work with people who are truly serious about winning. This is not a volume game. It's about positioning, storytelling, and playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers. If you want someone who can tell you the truth, help you find your edge, and drive real outcomes, I’m your coach.

I graduated with my MBA from the Stanford Graduate School of Business, where I was an Arjay Miller Scholar in the top 10% of the class. My background includes serving as Co-President of Women in Management at Stanford, where I supported women-focused admissions programming, and as an alumni interviewer for Yale University. With experience in private equity and leadership roles at Morgan Stanley, I have a deep understanding of what top business schools and companies seek. I've supported coaching clients in crafting compelling applications and navigating the competitive MBA admissions process. My Stanford GSB experience transformed my life- I want others to have their own rewarding grad school experience too. Let's work together to make your MBA dreams a reality!
