MBA Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

Welcome to my profile! If you're unsure how to tell your story—especially if you come from a nontraditional background, didn’t attend a “target” school, or just need a sharp thought partner to elevate your essays and resume—you’re in the right place! For the past two years, I’ve served as a career coach at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, helping students shape narratives that stand out. Before that, I spent five years in management consulting, leading teams and turning complex insights into clear, high-impact messaging. With a background in corporate strategy, healthcare, and data science, I’m especially helpful to applicants navigating less conventional career transitions—whether you're moving from technical roles into business or aiming to break into top programs without a traditional pedigree. Let’s work together to craft an application that’s strategic, authentic, and truly differentiated. Reach out to get started.

I’m a current Berkeley Haas MBA who cracked admission to one of the most selective, culture‑driven programs out there (top 3 Bloomberg 2025) — and I know exactly what “Haas‑material” looks like to the admissions team from the inside. Shoot me a message to learn more.

After spending six years as a software engineer in the Bay Area, I decided to take on the challenge of applying to MBA programs—which turned out to be quite the adventure (so much so that I did it twice!). With my DIY approach to life, I handled most of the application process on my own. A big thanks to the awesome Leland coaches who helped me nail the interviews, leading to acceptances from three out of my four top-choice schools. Now, I'm enjoying my time pursuing an MBA at Harvard Business School. Along the way, I've picked up more insights about the program than I ever expected. I realized I love sharing what I've learned and helping others on their own paths. That's why I joined Leland. I'm here to share tips, stories, and guidance to make your MBA application journey a bit smoother—and maybe even a bit fun. If you're gearing up for your own MBA adventure, let's chat and see how I can help!
