MBA Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

Graduated from Kellogg School of Management's Full-time MBA program in 2018 - Accepted to 3 Top Tier MBA schools, received significant scholarships to all schools ($250k in total) and achieved 750 GMAT score. I have personal experience advising co-workers and peers on applications, including resume review, essays, and interviews. Post-Kellogg, I served as an Alumni interviewer and have a unique perspective into what it takes to stand out and how to best prepare.

Having been through the deferred MBA application myself and helping others across multiple application periods, I've come to develop a keen sense as to how to best represent STEM focused undergrads who want to pursue a potential MBA from a T7 school. Additionally, having personal relationships with both HBS and MIT Sloan, I've been able to better understand from the lens of the AO team, how to best maximize ones chances.

Former Assoc. Director of Admissions at UC Irvine

HBS/GSB dual-admit and Fulbright recipient with internship experience across management consulting, entrepreneurship, and education. Since going through the deferred MBA process one year ago, I have a firm grasp of what makes a compelling application in today's admissions landscape. Specifically, I've mentored applicants who fall into two main categories: 1. Traditional applicants (incoming MBB+ consultants/IB/PE) looking to differentiate themselves in the application process. I help applicants identify a core "theme" to base their story behind, and work with them to highlight how their 'traditional' pre-MBA role fits in. 2. Students from non-business backgrounds (liberal arts college students with experiences outside traditional "business" fields). I graduated from Bowdoin College and learned how to connect extracurriculars spanning nonprofits and education into a cohesive, compelling narrative that helped set me apart in interviews. If you're already in the process of applying to programs like Harvard and Stanford, or are exploring whether it's the right choice for you, I'd love to share my personal insights as well as offer advice on how to take your application to the next level.

Throughout my time at Northwestern Kellogg I have offered ongoing support to several applicants, including 2 of my closest friends with whom I reviewed application materials, advised on admissions test strategies, assisted in interview prep and ultimately helped them decide which program to attend.

I applied to six MBA programs and was accepted to all six, earning scholarships from every school for a total of roughly $750,000 in offers — an outcome that came from deeply understanding what each program values and how to position yourself compellingly. My own journey included raising my GMAT from a 670 to a 760 across multiple attempts, which gave me firsthand experience navigating setbacks and refining strategy under pressure. Beyond my own applications, I've spent two years as an official Ross interviewer and have partnered with Forté to lead multiple workshops on interview prep and maximizing your MBA experience. I've also worked one-on-one with 10+ applicants on everything from school selection and decision-making to essays, resumes, and mock interviews. Whether you are just starting to explore programs or putting the finishing touches on your application, I bring both the insider perspective and the track record to help you put your best foot forward. I've helped applicants gain admission to Kellogg, Wharton, Tuck, Yale SOM, Ross, Fuqua, and more - let's build the story that helps you get there.

As a former M7 Admissions Director, I help you craft authentic, powerful applications that stand out and get results. Since 2017, I’ve helped hundreds of MBA-hopefuls get accepted to top MBA programs across full-time, executive, and part-time programs and I look forward to helping you do the same. 93% of my clients achieve MBA success and more than half secure scholarships averaging $180K. I served on Columbia Business School’s admission committee, where I reviewed countless applications, interviewed candidates, managed the world-wide interview program, served as a waitlist manager, and managed the dual degree programs for the Law, Medical, and Journalism schools. Thereafter, I transitioned into finance, with stints at a hedge fund, a large bank, and in venture capital. Yet, even as I built my career, I missed the part I loved most - helping candidates craft their stories. I returned to the admissions world as a coach. On the other side of the admissions journey, I saw critical gaps in the application process: limited guidance around testing, the challenge of telling narratives within the confines of a few essays and a resume is challenging, and how admissions committees can seem like a black box. My mission reflects these gaps - offer best-in-class advice, work closely with a small number of candidates, and provide personal partnership to every client.

At the Darden School of Business, I served as Chair of the Student Admissions Committee and bring a wealth of experience in guiding aspiring MBA candidates through the admissions process. My professional journey includes impactful roles at McKinsey & Company and General Motors, where I honed my strategic and leadership skills. I have a proven track record of helping clients craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths and experiences. Whether you need assistance with application strategy, essay writing, or interview preparation, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's work together to make your MBA dreams a reality!

I have advised 100+ applicants pursuing MBA and/or MPP applications to top institutions, helping applications secure admissions and a combined $500,000+ in scholarship money. Yes, that's over 10 candidates a year, with most of them receiving some form of financial aid! I will help you ethically secure scholarship funding where possible post-admissions (I.e., only after you've decided which school you'd like to attend!).

- Helped many candidates get into their dream programs, ranging from Stanford GSB, HBS, MIT Sloan, Kellogg, Booth, Tuck, Wharton, CBS, and more! - Previous admits to top MBA programs such as CBS, MIT Sloan, Booth, NYU Stern, and Yale SOM all with large/full-tuition scholarships - Obtained a 750 on the GMAT (98% percentile) - Passionate about helping others reflect and highlight top leadership stories from their experiences to stand out in competitive business school pools
