Executive MBA Admissions Coaches

I hold degrees from Harvard, MIT, Wharton, and Stanford—giving me firsthand experience navigating multiple highly selective MBA and graduate programs. As a Stanford GSB Sloan Fellow (MSx), Wharton MBA/Lauder MA graduate, former INSEAD exchange student, and London Business School admit, I don’t just understand elite admissions—I’ve done it repeatedly across U.S. and European systems. Today I’m an active entrepreneur, investor, and board member: co-founder of an AI-native digital health company operating in Mexico, partner at a real estate private equity firm, and founding partner of a venture firm. I’ve also guest lectured at Stanford School of Medicine and MIT. That means my coaching isn’t just about getting in—it’s about building a credible, compelling story that matches what top programs are actually trying to select: leaders who will execute and create impact after graduation. I work with both U.S. and international applicants (with deep experience advising Latin American candidates; I’m fluent in Spanish and Portuguese). My specialty is fit-first strategy: identifying the programs that best match your goals (not simply the highest-ranked), then translating your profile into a sharp positioning, essays that sound like you at your best, and confident interview performance. Whether you’re targeting an M7, a top European program, or a non-traditional path like MSx/Sloan Fellows or joint degrees, I’ll help you apply—and choose—wisely.

I have in depth experience in coaching and mentoring, specifically in the MBA admissions space. I've gone through the process myself with huge success, I've coached prospective students through private coaching, as part of corporate coaching programs, and in support of the HBS admissions process. The reason I think I stand out and have found success as a coach is because I work hard to gain a true understanding of the applicant; to understand their motivations, values, drivers, strengths, and weaknesses. All of that is critical to craft a strong application for elite schools, but maybe more importantly it is critical to provide you the best support that I can. I will be better suited tailor my coaching to your needs, ensure you stay motivated and on track throughout the process, and unlock important insights to make your application stand out.

As an international student, I navigated the path from an F-1 visa to a career at Apple, NVIDIA, and Tesla, with two master's degrees from Carnegie Mellon. I've sat in the exact seat you're in: writing essays that need to feel distinctive without being gimmicky, picking schools that actually translate to the U.S. career you want after, and figuring out how to tell your story in a way that lands with admissions committees who read thousands of them. International MBA applicants face a specific challenge: most application advice is built around domestic applicants. The narrative arcs that work, the school selection criteria, the post-MBA career lens — they all assume a U.S.-citizen default. That's a real gap. And if your background is international, non-traditional, or both, that gap is where strong applications struggle. I work specifically with international applicants because that's the path I walked, and it's where I can add real value: - Finding the narrative angle that makes you distinct without leaning on the generic immigrant story - Picking schools through a sponsorship and post-MBA career lens - Positioning a non-traditional background as a strength, not a gap to explain - Writing essays that feel authentic and like you. - Preparing for the post-admit reality: visa timing, internship sponsorship, long-term career arc Whether you're applying to a MPP/MPA/MS/MBA program, the crux of a great graduate school application starts with crafting a bespoke winning strategy designed for you. I take a small cohort of clients per cycle. I'm selective because outcomes matter more than volume. If you're an ambitious international applicant aiming at top programs and you want a coach who's lived this path, let's talk.

I have spent nearly a decade working in MBA admissions, first as a member of the admissions committee at Emory University's Goizueta Business School and subsequently as an independent admissions coach.
