Part-Time MBA Admissions Coaches

Welcome to my profile! As an MBA graduate from Yale SOM, where I was a Dean's Scholar and Forte Fellow, I have a wealth of knowledge and experience in the MBA admissions process. My academic journey also includes an MEng from Imperial College London. I am passionate about helping aspiring MBA candidates navigate the complex admissions process, drawing on my own experiences and insights. Whether you need guidance on application strategy, essay crafting, or interview preparation, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Let's connect and work together to achieve your MBA goals!

Over the years, beginning with my time as a Neuroscience and Western European Politics double-major at Emory University, I have learned that excellent writing always tells a story. Applying this lesson in practice has paid off. As a Master's student in Neuroscience at Princeton University, I received the most prestigious STEM fellowship available to graduate students in the United States, the NSF-GRFP. Similarly, after spending the next few years working as a consultant at a strategy consulting firm, I am now attending the Wharton School at UPenn as an MBA Moelis Advance Access Fellow. Alongside these successes, I have helped aspiring college and graduate students write impressive resumes, cover letters, CVs, research statements, statements of purpose, personal statements, and fellowship applications. This has, in turn, helped my deserving mentees land their places at several elite colleges and graduate schools. Inspired by their success, I am here to help you achieve the same! In our work together, I will ensure that I not only provide excellent editing and writing but also, importantly, consult on how to elevate the structure, content, and story of your work.

HBS '23 (MBA with Distinction) | Cambridge MPhil | Non-Traditional Background Coach (Former Diplomat) | Former International MBA Applicant | Coached ~60 people in last decade | My MBA admissions insights are shaped by personal rejection and success across two cycles. Former consulting coach & tutor at HBS. ------------ I bring a unique perspective to MBA admissions, having experienced both rejection and success firsthand. After initially being unsuccessful in my applications, I reapplied and secured admission to Harvard Business School (HBS) – without the help of a consultant. Through significant effort and independent research, I gained the insights needed to stand out. Looking back, having a mentor like myself – someone who understands the process and how to succeed – would have made the journey far more efficient. I hold a BA (Hons) in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics from the University of Warwick, an MPhil in Development Economics from Jesus College, University of Cambridge, and an MBA with Distinction from Harvard Business School. As a non-traditional candidate, I became a diplomat at just 25 and served in five High Commissions and Embassies, giving me a unique perspective on navigating the admissions process outside the traditional MBA applicant pool. Over the years, I have mentored numerous aspiring MBA candidates, guiding them through every step of the process, from crafting outstanding applications to excelling in interviews. My proven strategies, built on real-world experience and a track record of success, equip me to help candidates from all backgrounds achieve their MBA aspirations. I know what it takes to succeed because I have lived it – and I am here to help you do the same.

Welcome to my profile! With 20+ years experience in Admissions Consulting, Career Coaching, Education, and Recruitment, I've supported many candidates gain admission to top MBA programs on the planet. My values are deeply rooted in quality education, global interconnectedness, and diversity & inclusion. If you're targeting a seat at some of the best schools in the world, working together, I'm confident we can get you there, and my previous client testimonials confirm that. As former Director of Recruitment for the Global MBA program at ESSEC Business School (Paris, France & Singapore) I know exactly what gives MBA applicants a competitive profile in the eyes of admissions committees. Previously in my role at France's prestigious Sciences Po, I offered countless workshops on how to write an impactful CV, as well as how to interview effectively. Prior to this, I worked in admissions & recruitment at Long Island University in New York. Additionally, as an English teacher for many years, most recently at the prestigious École de Guerre, you can rest assured that your essays will be critiqued for English grammar and spelling with the eye of a hawk. In 2020, I created Candidate Coach to do admissions consulting full time. Currently based between Paris, France and New York City - centrally located and globally connected to team up for appointments, no matter what your time zone in the world.

Coming from a non-target undergraduate institution and non-target work place I secured admission at MIT and Harvard and know how difficult it is to do so. I can help you tell your story and really stand out. I make things accessible and break them down into bite sized goals to help you put your best foot forward. While in my MBA program I worked at Bridgewater Associates and then had offers from Goldman Sachs TMT SF and Morgan Stanley Tech Investment banking groups. I also won the P.D. Soros Fellowship for New Americans (1% acceptance rate, $90,000) and the Zuckerman Fellowship (full ride at Harvard + Stanford), which helped fund a large part of my graduate degree.

As a MBA graduate and full-merit scholar (awarded Forte Fellowship) from the Berkeley Haas School of Business - in addition to being admitted to Wharton and Columbia Business school for full-time MBA programs with scholarships - I can advise you on storytelling, interview prep, writing and editing essays that will get you a (strong) step closer to getting into your dream school. I have also served on the admissions committee at Wellesley College (undergrad) as an interviewer, and as a peer advisory at Berkeley Haas, am confident in resume-editing and mock interviewing. I am passionate about helping aspiring MBA candidates craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths, and give direct feedback to improve. Also, if you are an anxious test taker I can help with strategies that helped me overcome my self-doubt to achieve a great score. Let's work together to make your MBA dreams a reality!

I have supported Admissions interviews for candidates in to the Chicago Booth part-time MBA program so I have a strong sense of what it takes to gain successful admission.

In addition, I TA'd Negotiations courses at Booth so I have significant experience negotiating offers and scholarships. I enjoy helping others achieve their goals and look forward to working with you!
