MBA Admissions Coaches

If you’re ready to unlock your unique story and turn your application into an irresistible pitch, let’s make it happen—together. Things I'm able to speak to in-depth: social impact programming at Stanford GSB (classes, clubs, impact fund), applying and attending as a nontraditional applicant, global networks at the GSB.

Received admissions and scholarships to several top business schools with a mix of traditional and non traditional backgrounds. Will provide no nonsense and actionable feedback for your essays, applications, and interviews. Coached several students to top 3 admissions outcomes in the last cycle.

When I started my MBA admissions journey, I decided I would figure out the admissions process myself. In hindsight, I wish I hadn't. Writing essays for each of my target schools and editing and re-editing my resume was an arduous process that would have been more efficient had I sought advice from someone who had been through the process. Ultimately, I landed admits from multiple M7 and top 15 MBA programs, and received my MBA from University of Michigan's Ross School of Business on full scholarship. During this process I learned much about what makes for a successful MBA applicant and interviewed many successful (and unsuccessful) candidates as an admissions interviewer. I have firsthand insight into what top business schools are looking for in candidates and a proven track record of helping applicants 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!

With an MBA from MIT Sloan, an MPA from Harvard Kennedy School, and a BA from Harvard, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table on applying strategically and successfully to some of the most competitive academic programs in the world -- and securing scholarships. I was humbled and grateful to be awarded a Dean's Fellowship (50K/year, 5% of class) to MIT, and a full-tuition Presidential Scholarship (full tuition, 1.5% of class) to HKS, both without additional applications. I understand what it takes to stand out in competitive environments and have successfully helped over a dozen clients in their MBA applications. My professional journey includes management consultant roles at PwC and Booz Allen Hamilton, where I honed my skills in human capital and HR-- skills that give me a unique perspective on recruiting, resume, and cover letter best practices. I am passionate about helping you craft a compelling MBA application that highlights your unique strengths. Let's work together to achieve your academic and professional goals!

I am a full-time MBA student at The Wharton School with recent experience navigating the admissions process. I have coached dozens of hopefuls (officially and unofficially) to success at HSW. For those interested in earning a JD in addition to the MBA, I can also speak to the pros and cons (and admissions process) as a current JD/MBA candidate.

I went through the Executive MBA journey at UCLA Anderson School of Management as a partial scholarship recipient—balancing career, leadership, and real life—and I now help others navigate that same path with far more clarity and intention. I work with professionals at every stage of the MBA journey: deciding if it’s the right move, crafting a compelling application story, and—most importantly—figuring out how to actually leverage the MBA for real career acceleration afterward. My coaching helps you: Make a clear, confident MBA decision (no overthinking or guesswork) Build a strong, authentic application narrative that stands out Position your experience and story for top programs Turn your MBA into real momentum in your career—not just a credential
