Part-Time MBA Admissions Experts

-Have worked with 600+ MBA applicants from all over the world, with admits to schools including HBS, Stanford, Wharton, Sloan, Kellogg, Columbia, Booth, INSEAD, LBS, and many, many more. -85%+ success rate; 99% satisfaction rate, as people have a great experience with me regardless of their outcome. -Story-driven partnership approach to find and tell the best-possible narratives to differentiate and win. -"Magic" is common word clients use to describe my help. -I treat clients how I would want to be treated when paying for a premium service.

I take a highly supportive approach to coaching and aim to create an environment in which my clients can be completely open about their worries so I can be the best possible coach for them. That said, you can expect me to be constructively candid – because coaching is about challenging you and accelerating your growth, not making you feel good so I can collect a check. In addition to sitting on both Stanford's and Northwestern's alumni admissions councils, I was an interviewer at Google and Facebook, so I've spent many hours "on the other side of the table" and can give you a strong sense for how you might be perceived by interviewers and admissions committees. I enjoy coaching people from a huge range of backgrounds, but I specialize in coaching folks from lower-income families, LGBTQ+ candidates, and those from unconventional backgrounds trying to thrive in tech.

I've spent the last 16+ years helping ambitious applicants get into the world's most competitive MBA programs, including Harvard, Stanford, Columbia, MIT Sloan, Yale SOM, and Booth. Across 200+ MBA clients, 95% have been admitted to at least one of their top-choice programs, and over half have received scholarship money. I graduated from NYU Summa Cum Laude with a double major in Economics and English, and earned my MBA from Columbia Business School in 2020, where I focused on Strategy and Entrepreneurship. That gives me a current, first-hand perspective on what M7 adcoms are actually looking for. My career in this work started in Singapore, at a test prep and admissions firm I helped expand into Shanghai, running tutoring and admissions consulting in both markets before coming back to New York to found my own practice. That international background means I'm equally comfortable working with US candidates and applicants from Asia, Europe, and beyond, particularly the kinds of candidates who often have the strongest stories but the hardest time articulating them: finance professionals reinventing themselves, engineers making a pivot, non-traditional career switchers. My work focuses on coherence. Most applicants arrive with strong but scattered material: a real career, real accomplishments, but no through-line. My job is to help you find the narrative that ties it all together, build a school list that's strategic (not aspirational), and turn essays into the strongest part of your application instead of the most stressful. If you want a structured, results-focused partner, let's talk.

I've helped over five applicants in the last two years gain admission to Wharton with funding ranging from 25% to full-tuition scholarships, and have coached peers into top 10 MBA and master’s programs—many with significant scholarship offers. I specialize in helping applicants craft compelling, authentic stories that clearly show how an MBA aligns with their personal and professional goals. My expertise in storytelling was sharpened through years of securing nationally competitive fellowships, including the PPIA Junior Summer Institute at Princeton and the Harvard Kennedy School’s PPLC Fellowship. If you’re looking for a coach who will help you connect the dots between your experiences, aspirations, and the MBA journey, I’d love to support you.

I am a Berkeley Haas MBA candidate, the founder of MBA to Commas, and one of the few coaches on this platform who is actively inside a top MBA program right now. I have coached over 400 MBA students, completed 10 customized mentorship packages with a 100% admit rate across all clients, and previously worked as a coach with an early admit program. I built MBA to Commas from the ground up as a boutique admissions consulting firm specifically for first-generation applicants, career changers, and ambitious professionals who do not have a built-in network guiding them through the process. I know what admissions committees at elite programs are looking for because I have helped hundreds of people get in and I am living it myself at Haas right now. Beyond admissions, I am a licensed California realtor with over $1.1 million in transactions, an Airbnb Superhost, and a content creator with 94,000 followers and over 300 million views across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. I have worked with brands including Netflix, Verizon, and Perplexity AI. I bring that same strategic, results-driven mindset to every client I work with. If you have a non-traditional background, a story that does not fit neatly into a template, or an application you are not sure how to position, I am the coach you want. My track record speaks for itself and I am just getting started.
