MBA Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

I received deferred admissions to HBS/GSB as a senior at UT Austin, a non-target school for admissions. I went through dozens of iterations on my essays and have a background in Creative Writing that helped me and will help you as well! Authenticity and storytelling also play a major role in the behavioral interview, which is another area of my expertise.

I have always loved writing and crafting a compelling story. I worked in the Office of the CEO at BlackRock for several years, managing both the CEO and the firm’s narrative, and I understand how to appeal to a professional audience while finding space for personality and passion to shine through. I managed my own MBA application process and was admitted to Stanford, Harvard, and Wharton. I received feedback from the admissions counselors at each school and was able to overcome weaknesses in my application through my storytelling and interview skills. I’ve helped clients, friends and peers navigate the process including everything from time management and confidence building to narrative crafting and storytelling. The MBA process is incredibly unique and difficult, and I am excited to help people find their voice and stand out amongst a crowd!

As someone who was admitted to Booth, Wharton, Kellogg, Columbia, Haas, and NYU, I know firsthand how to craft a compelling MBA application that stands out. I’ve helped multiple applicants clarify their story, strengthen their essays, and position themselves for success—even when they thought they didn’t have the “perfect” background. I bring a mix of private equity and startup experience, a deep understanding of what top business schools are looking for, and a no-fluff coaching style that gets results. Whether you're figuring out your career narrative or polishing your final drafts, I’ll meet you where you are and help you hit submit with confidence.

Besides my MBA, I've studied journalism and theatre, and once ran an economic development agency - so I can relate to many different industries and career paths.

Welcome to my profile! As an MBA graduate of Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management and a current 4th year medical student, I bring a healthcare-centric perspective to the MBA admissions process. Additionally, I'm only a few months removed from being a student admissions interviewer at Kellogg and also spent a year on the admissions committee at my medical school. Thus, I have useful experience on both sides of the admissions process. My goal is to be the go-to coach for those who want to use an MBA to work in the vast world of healthcare. Describing healthcare experience in interviews and essays can be challenging, as it requires translating complex industry knowledge into language that resonates with a broad audience, including MBA admissions committees. I'm confident I can help you do just that. I've reviewed dozens of MBA applications and coached many healthcare-focused candidates. I feel well-prepared to help you leverage your medical background—or if career switching, to express your interest in healthcare—to stand out in your MBA applications. Let's work together to make your application truly exceptional—reach out to get started!
