Welcome to my profile! As an MBA candidate at The Wharton School, I bring a firsthand, insider perspective to the MBA admissions process, having successfully navigated it myself. I was admitted to and offered scholarships by several top business schools, including Columbia Business School, Kellogg, and Tuck, giving me a broad view into what different programs value and how strong applications stand out. After business school, I will be pivoting into real estate investment banking at a bulge bracket bank. Professionally, my background spans finance, law, and strategy. I have worked as a Portfolio Manager and Strategist at the real estate fund AGW Partners, as well as in various roles at the international law firm, Kobre & Kim. I also bring many years of mentorship experience through America Needs You and Big Brothers Big Sisters, helping students identify their strengths, build confidence, and translate their experiences into compelling narratives. I am especially passionate about working with candidates from non-traditional backgrounds, including those looking to pivot from fields like law or other professional services into business. Whether you need support with essays, interviews, or overall application strategy, I aim to provide thoughtful, practical guidance that helps you present your story clearly and authentically.

I have over 17+ years of higher education experience and 9 years at Columbia University, serving as a former Director of MBA/EMBA Admissions, and Senior Associate Director for the Columbia Business School Real Estate Center and Alumni Development. I simplify the process with tailored guidance, personalized strategy, and insights earned as a former M7 Admissions Director, helping you build a narrative that feels true to you and compelling to admissions committees. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach here and I'd love to help you build successful applications with real results.

Applying to business school can feel overwhelming, especially if you don’t have a perfect GMAT score, a built-in network, or a professional background to set you apart. I know, because I’ve been there. I grew up in a low-income community, worked my way into Deloitte, and earned admission to Harvard Business School without the kind of advantages many applicants rely on. I’ve also coached consultants and bankers who worried they’d blend into the crowd. What I’ve learned is that admissions committees aren’t just looking for high scores and polished resumes—they’re looking for people with a story. I help applicants surface the experiences, values, and strengths that make them memorable and compelling, even when they feel “average” on paper. From tackling essays and refining resumes to interview prep and recommender strategy, I’ll help you package your experiences into an authentic narrative that opens doors.

My professional journey includes strategic leadership roles at Grubhub and McKinsey & Company, where I honed my skills in strategy and operations. I have a passion for helping aspiring MBA candidates craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths and experiences. Whether you need guidance on application strategy, essay writing, or interview preparation, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's connect and make your MBA dreams a reality!
