MBA Admissions Coaches

I’m a Wharton MBA with multiple years of experience including accounting, business development and management consulting. While at Wharton, I also particpated in multiple clubs and was also an Alumni Fellow, allowing me to interface with leaders across the institution and alumni. More importantly, I’m someone who gets the MBA journey from the inside out. Whether you're navigating the stress of applications, weighing the ROI of school, or balancing career pivots with financial constraints, I’ve been there. I bring a strategic, empathetic approach grounded in real-world experience. From earning sponsorship at PwC to mentoring peers through essays, interviews, and tough personal trade-offs, I’ll help you tell your story with clarity, confidence and authenticity.

I spent 3+ years preparing to apply to my dream business school programs. On that journey, I talked to hundreds of others also on this path, which helped me uncover best practices. I also worked with MBA consultants and MBA-prep organizations that taught me additional tools I could have adopted to shorten the time-to-apply timeline. Ever since I got into my desired program, I've advised many MBA candidates and provided my unique learnings, which have resulted in most getting into their top programs. I'm passionate about helping others navigate what often feels like an unruly MBA path.

Hey! I’m Michael, a Wharton MBA and Forbes 30 Under 30 founder who’s navigated a nontraditional path into business school and beyond. Before Wharton, I left medical school to build a company from scratch, growing it into one of the largest Asian-centric digital media brands in the world. Going through that journey shaped how I approached my own MBA applications and how I think about storytelling, positioning, and credibility in competitive admissions processes. I know firsthand that strong MBA applications are not about checking boxes or copying templates. They’re about clearly articulating your story, your decisions, and where you’re headed next. At Wharton, I saw how applicants from unconventional backgrounds can stand out when they frame their experiences with honesty, clarity, and intention. I also understand how confusing it can be to decide whether business school is right for you, how to choose programs, and how to translate your past into a compelling narrative for admissions committees. I work with applicants who want thoughtful, high-touch guidance, especially those coming from nontraditional backgrounds, career pivots, or entrepreneurial paths and have helped my clients gain admission to the top business schools in the world. My focus is on helping you craft a clear, authentic MBA narrative, refine your essays, and present your experiences in a way that feels true to you while still resonating with top programs. If you’re looking to tell your story with confidence and submit an application you genuinely stand behind, I’d love to help you through the process.

Graduating Harvard undergraduate, I applied for and was accepted to 5 top business schools. Since then, I've helped many students apply and join top schools across the country. Happy to work with you on finding your story and telling a novel narrative, fine-tuning essays, and strategizing schools.

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've helped over five applicants in the last two years gain admission to Wharton with funding ranging from 25% to full-tuition scholarships, and have coached peers into top 10 MBA and master’s programs—many with significant scholarship offers. I specialize in helping applicants craft compelling, authentic stories that clearly show how an MBA aligns with their personal and professional goals. My expertise in storytelling was sharpened through years of securing nationally competitive fellowships, including the PPIA Junior Summer Institute at Princeton and the Harvard Kennedy School’s PPLC Fellowship. If you’re looking for a coach who will help you connect the dots between your experiences, aspirations, and the MBA journey, I’d love to support you.

I did a lot of research into which MBA programs I wanted to apply to and why. When applying, I carefully crafted a strategy centered around acing the GMAT exam and applying early to my top schools. In the end, I was able to get through the admissions process by getting admitted early into my top school, and in the end, I only had to apply to 3 programs. I was able to navigate this process with a great degree of optimization and I think a lot of that was because I had a clear vision for why I wanted to do my MBA and what I wanted to get out of it. Because I took the time to reflect on my story, I was able to put my best foot forward in my applications and experience great success. I'll now be matriculating to an M7 program this year.
