Deferred MBA Admissions Coaches

I earned my MBA at the USC Marshall School of Business, where I served as Vice President of the Veterans Association and the Tech Association. That experience gave me a front-row seat to how MBA programs work, what admissions committees look for, and how students can make the most of their time in business school. My own MBA propelled me into roles at Salesforce and later into a Chief of Staff position at Zoom—proof of how powerful the right MBA path can be. Now, I help others create the same kind of transformation. When we work together, I’ll help you: * Clarify your career goals and position your MBA as the bridge to get there * Craft a compelling, authentic application strategy that highlights your unique story * Navigate essays, resumes, and recommendations with insider guidance * Build confidence through interview prep and communication coaching * Understand how to leverage your MBA once admitted, to open doors like I did Whether you’re just starting your MBA journey or fine-tuning your final application, I’ll partner with you to make your candidacy stand out and maximize your chances of admission.

Welcome to my profile! I was accepted into deferred MBA programs at the Harvard Business School and Wharton School of Business after graduating from a non-target school with an 82% acceptance rate. I had big dreams in undergrad: get into an M7 business school. But, I had no connections, no target background, and no clue how to get there. I share this because if I can do it, you can too. My journey taught me the power of authentic storytelling. Allow me to share my experience and help you craft a striking application, bringing your unique story to light.

As a Stanford MBA (Class of 2013) with a track record of building successful businesses across three continents, I bring a unique blend of admissions insight and real-world experience to MBA coaching. After earning my MBA, I've spent over a decade as a management consultant at Bain & Company, repeat entrepreneur (co-founding two start-ups, including a Nigerian health-tech startup that scaled to $3M ARR and an educational NGO), and strategic leader at high-growth companies. The MBA experience was transformative for me, and I'm passionate about helping others who are seeking to have a positive impact in the world to unlock their full potential. Having successfully guided 5 aspiring MBAs into top-tier programs, I understand what admissions committees are looking for and how to craft compelling narratives that showcase your potential. My coaching approach combines a deep dive into your unique background, an exploration of the schools that would be the best fit for you, and a tailored collaboration to develop the strongest possible application. I have a particular depth of experience working with applicants from West and East Africa, as well as folks from non-traditional professional backgrounds.

I am a JD / MBA candidate at Harvard Business School and Harvard Law School. I have 5 years of professional experience in high finance.

Feeling out of your league? I got into America's #1 business school despite having the lowest accepted GRE math score in years. I specialize in helping people from nontraditional professional backgrounds, like myself, apply to elite MBA programs. Prior to attending Stanford's GSB on a full merit scholarship (Knight Hennessy), I had only worked in international development and public service. I felt imposter syndrome about applying to business school: I had no idea what EBITDA was and hadn't used numbers in 10 years. Nonetheless, I made my application stand out because I have a knack for storytelling, branding, and communication. I'd love to help you do the same!

Hi :) I'm an MBA graduate of Stanford's GSB (focus on entrepreneurship & energy), and I bring a wealth of experience in both the academic and professional realms. My journey includes roles in venture capital, entrepreneurship, and engineering. I was also a D1 athlete, but am sadly "washed up" and retired. I've successfully coached individuals through their MBA applications, helping them craft compelling narratives across the whole of their application. Whether you're looking to refine your essays, prepare for interviews, or develop a strong application strategy, I'm here to help - let's chat!
