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!

I grew up across five U.S. cities and spent years living on four continents, so “Where are you from?” rarely has a tidy answer. But why I move is simple: to help people become the best version of themselves. For me, that impact starts with food. My personal mission is to make healthy meals exciting, accessible, and affordable. That mission led me to build a hydroponic farm in my apartment, donate 20K lbs of food to furloughed service workers during COVID, and start a kombucha company in China. That clarity of vision led me to become the first person ever admitted to Stanford GSB and the Schwarzman Scholars program in the same application cycle. As your coach, I’ll give you the clarity that took me years to gain. Together we’ll sharpen your mission, ground it in your experiences, and craft a story that connects every dot. The result? An application that admissions teams can’t overlook. Just ask the people I've previously worked with who were accepted into Stanford GSB, Schwarzman, Harvard, Wharton, and beyond.
