MBA/MD Admissions Experts

Welcome to my profile! I'm John, a seasoned MBA admissions coach with over 17 years of experience helping clients gain admission to top 7 business schools. With a rich background in global brand management at companies like Procter & Gamble, Brinker International and Yum! Brands, I bring strategic marketing insights to craft compelling and unique narratives for each applicant. My multicultural upbringing and fluency in English, Spanish, and Arabic allow me to connect deeply with clients from diverse backgrounds, ensuring a personalized coaching approach. Let's work together to differentiate your application and make your story stand out to admissions committees including, but not limited to the following MBA Programs: Kellogg Harvard Stanford Booth MIT Sloan Wharton INSEAD Fuqua Haas McCombs UNC Kenan-Flager UCLA Anderson I look forward to working together and crafting your story to get you in your dream MBA program!

INSEAD alumnus and MBA admissions coach with firsthand experience navigating the application process independently, including admission to INSEAD. I support candidates across profiles: from early-career to experienced professionals, with a focus on positioning, storytelling, and school selection (US vs. Europe vs. Asia), including a clear ROI perspective on different programs. I also work with applicants managing lower GMAT scores, helping them strengthen overall profiles and application strategy.

I got into Wharton with a GMAT of 710 and TOEFL of 106, both well below the school's average. I also received scholarship and fellowship offers from NYU Stern and Michigan Ross. My test scores didn't define my application. What stood out was my unique story: diverse career pivots across functions and markets, a niche in entrepreneurship, design thinking, and EdTech, and a track record of doing things others thought impossible (like publishing two books before ever working in corporate). I leaned into what made me different, not what made me "the same best" as everyone else. That's the biggest mistake I see applicants make: trying to fit into what they think MBA programs want. But admissions committees aren't looking for the "best" candidate. They're looking for a diverse class of unique individuals. Your job isn't to be perfect. It's to be distinctly you. I pursued a dual degree, MBA and Master's in Education, at Penn because I'm genuinely passionate about empowering others. That same passion drives my coaching today. I also know what it feels like to work with big-name consultants who don't remember your story and give generic advice. My approach is different. I offer personalized support and help you uncover and articulate what makes you stand out. Whether you're an international student, a career changer, or still deciding if an MBA is the right path, I'm here to help you figure it out.

I've guided candidates through the full MBA admissions process for over 10 years — from school selection and application strategy through to essays, CV, letters of recommendation, and interview prep. Nearly all candidates who completed the full journey with me were admitted to their target school, including M7 programs (Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, Columbia, Booth, Kellogg, MIT Sloan) and top European schools (LBS, INSEAD, HEC Paris, Bocconi, IE, IESE, Cambridge, Oxford). As a BCG consultant with an engineering background, I bring a perspective that most admissions coaches don't have. I know what top employers actually look for in MBA graduates, which programmes open which doors, and how to position technical and STEM profiles for business schools — because I've done it myself. I hold an MBA from SDA Bocconi and Columbia Business School, and a mechanical engineering degree from Politecnico di Milano and the University of Illinois, so I've navigated this transition firsthand, on both sides of the Atlantic. I work on every element of the application: defining your narrative and positioning, selecting schools strategically, crafting essays that sound like you and not like a template, shaping your CV for impact, coaching recommenders on what to highlight, and preparing you for interviews. The goal is a cohesive application where every piece reinforces who you are and why you belong. If what you've read resonates, write to me.
