Traditional Full-Time MBA Admissions Coaches

As a proud NYU Stern MBA graduate with a merit-based scholarship and a spot on the Dean’s List, I bring a wealth of experience from my time as a strategy consultant at Deloitte and in investment banking at FT Partners. I've successfully coached candidates, helping them secure interviews and admissions at prestigious M7 schools, INSEAD, LBS, ISB, and other top programs. My expertise lies in guiding professionals from diverse backgrounds, including tech, finance, engineering, and family businesses, to sharpen their application strategy, essays, and interview skills. As a non-IIT, non-IIM Indian applicant myself, I understand the unique challenges international candidates face and am here to help you craft a compelling narrative. Let's work together to make your MBA dreams a reality!

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.

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.

I just completed one of the most competitive MBA application cycles in history, earning admission to MIT Sloan (where I'll be attending), Columbia Business School, Kellogg, Booth, and Stern—with interviews at 6 of the 7 M7 schools I applied to. But what truly qualifies me as a coach isn't just my own success—it's my passion for teaching. I currently guest lecture at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business and have spent years mentoring Accenture analysts, teaching underprivileged children in India, and leading pro-bono consulting projects. My family's legacy in education taught me that the best coaches don't just know the material; they genuinely care about their students' success. As a strategy consultant at Accenture for 4 years, I've honed the storytelling, analytical, and strategic thinking skills that make MBA applications successful. I've lived this process recently and intimately, tackling diverse essay formats and navigating competitive interview processes. I succeeded as a public university graduate breaking into M7 schools and understand how to position unique backgrounds as strengths. Whether you're a consultant looking to differentiate yourself, a public university grad aiming for M7, or someone with a mission-driven story to tell, I'll bring a data-driven, personalized approach to help you craft a winning narrative.
