MBA Admissions Coaches

With over twenty years of multifaceted professional and MBA admissions consulting experience, I bring a perspective that most consultants simply can’t replicate. My career has taken me from Deloitte’s Strategy & Operations practice and Samsung’s Global Strategy Group in Seoul to the operating teams of multiple tech startups and the halls of higher education, where I have coached MBA candidates at UCLA Anderson and USC Marshall. I understand what admissions committees at top programs are looking for, because I’ve lived the kinds of careers they want to see and I know how to help you frame your story in the most compelling way possible. My commitment is to help you articulate your unique story and personal brand in an authentic and engaging way. I ensure that every aspect of your application, from essays and resumes to recommendations and interviews, reflects your full potential. Whether you need comprehensive end-to-end guidance or targeted assistance with a specific component, I provide honest, actionable feedback and individualized hands-on support. I work with a select group of clients each cycle—to give each engagement the attention it deserves and ensure that no one gets lost in the shuffle. The results speak for themselves: ➤ 100% of clients receive 2 or more offers of admission ➤ 90% of clients admitted to 2 or more M7 programs ➤ Clients admitted to HBS, Stanford GSB, Wharton, Kellogg, Booth, MIT Sloan, CBS, Berkeley Haas, NYU Stern, Yale SOM, Fuqua, and Tuck I hold an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management and a BA from Swarthmore College.

I have personally been admitted to several M7 and T15 MBA programs, including Chicago Booth, Columbia Business School, and Cornell Johnson — with over USD 250K in merit scholarships. Additionally, I am a recipient of some of the most prestigious and competitive graduate fellowships in the world, such as the Schwarzman Scholars program at Tsinghua University with only a 3% acceptance rate annually. Since then, I have advised 50+ traditional and non-traditional applicants to top business schools globally, including Harvard Business School, Stanford GSB, The Wharton School, Columbia, Kellogg, Booth, MIT Sloan, INSEAD, London Business School, Haas, Cornell Johnson, and Dartmouth Tuck, etc. I have developed a success framework and templates that can guide you through the MBA application process and maximize your chances.

After my own journey applying and interviewing for MBAs, from rejections to full-time offers with scholarships, I can personally attest to the challenges, frustrations, and difficulties in determining the right school and executing to receive an offer. I visited 12 business schools in 5 countries in the US, Europe, and Asia in my own research and decision-making process. I've helped numerous applicants on essays, school strategy, narrative development, overall applications, etc. Would be pleased to share learnings and support other applicants in their own trajectories towards success. I've studied in 7 universities and lived in 9 countries, so I uniquely understand different education systems across borders.
