MBA Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

Hi! I'm Maya, an award-winning Product Manager with a strong background in Fintech, Blockchain, and the Creator Economy. I hold an MBA from Harvard Business School, where I co-chaired the Entrepreneurship club and organized the inaugural HBS Blockchain Conference. During my time at HBS, I launched a venture-backed tech startup, Privy Labs, where I am currently still Founder & CEO. As a longtime player in the NY startup ecosystem, I have mentored over 100 early-stage entrepreneurs on how to build revenue generating MVPs, raise VC, and navigate the Founder landscape. If you're an aspiring entrepreneur looking for guidance on your MBA journey, let's connect and discuss how I can help you achieve your goals!

I'm currently a Stanford MBA (where I'm the Student Body Co-President), and have 5+years of college admissions coaching experience. Before GSB, I spent time as a teacher (focusing on essay writing and story telling) and as a management consultant. Over the years working in admissions consulting, I have helped students based in the US, Hong Kong, China, and Singapore successfully apply to school. I'm here to help you create a stellar MBA application that can launch you into a top program in a way that tells your authentic story. As a coach, I bring a structured, honest, and tailored approach to the application process. Beyond my teaching experience, I also have a BA in Economics, Psychology, and Creative Writing from Northwestern University through which I learned how to help people navigate their truest stories. I'm particularly experienced at helping prospective MBAs figure out how the MBA would play into their larger goals as people and as professionals. No matter how untraditional the path, I'm skilled at helping applicants frame their diverse experiences in a compelling and cohesive way that resonates with admissions committees. If you want a partner in this process, I'm your guide.

I was admitted to every school I applied to: Stanford (GSB), Harvard (HBS), MIT (Sloan), UChicago (Booth), and Northwestern (Kellogg). With the insights I gained through my own application process + six years of experience in the education space (developing programming for thousands of students, co-founding an ed-tech startup, and mentoring dozens of students 1:1), I'm excited to support your MBA journey!

I'm an enthusiastic and resourceful business professional with a decade of experience in venture capital, entrepreneurship and strategy consulting and an MBA from Harvard Business School. My 99th percentile GMAT score and prior work experience for a test prep company inform my approach to GMAT / GRE prep, but I know that the MBA application process is about more than just a test. I help my clients craft unique, holistic application materials that reflect their qualifications beyond scores and resume bullet points. As part of my admissions guidance I offer career coaching to help clients articulate what they want to get out of their MBA program and why. My versatile career across finance, consulting, and entrepreneurship as well as my prior experience as a career coach at HBS have informed my unique perspective on how to pivot between industries and get the most return on a top tier MBA program.

Annie is an experienced and passionate coach who uses the power of storytelling to inspire humanity and empower individual growth. She went through the deferred admissions process last year, and successfully crafted a strategic & holistic narrative despite having a sub-par GMAT score, received interviews with Stanford GSB, UPenn Wharton, and Chicago Booth programs, and received letters of recommendation from highly influential people such as the business school dean, a Partner at a Big 4 firm, and world-class faculty. Now, as a Michigan Ross graduate and a deferred admit to the University of Chicago Booth Scholars Program, she hopes to offer comprehensive assistance to students who are looking to apply for deferred MBAs. At the University of Michigan, Annie served as an academic writing coach for underresourced first-years hoping to transfer into the competitive Michigan Ross business school, so she has reviewed over 20 application essays from diverse students, and deeply understands what top business programs are looking for in their candidates. As a first-generation college student, Annie has always highly valued education and conducts thorough research to further her abilities. She is seeking not just coachees, but mentees, who come from underrepresented backgrounds to provide complete resource guides, top-secret tips to the application process, and a thorough review and analysis of their application essays.
