Traditional Full-Time MBA Admissions Experts

Shortly after earning my MBA from the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth, I began coaching MBA applicants through one of the most transformative processes of their professional lives. Over the past 13+ years, I’ve helped candidates from around the world gain admission to top programs, My approach combines insider insight with personalized strategy. Having gone through the process myself and having worked with dozens of successful applicants, I understand what schools are really looking for beyond test scores and resumes. I help applicants uncover their most authentic stories, position their strengths with clarity, and bring polish and purpose to every element of their applications, from essays and recommendations to interviews and school selection. What sets my coaching apart is a balance of strategy and empathy. I believe that great applications are not just well-written—they are deeply personal and strategically aligned with a school’s values and culture. My goal is to ensure that every client feels confident, authentic, and prepared to put their best self forward.

Welcome to my profile! I bring deep experience in MBA admissions, having previously served as the Assistant Director of Admissions at the Kellogg School of Management, where I helped shape recruitment strategies that elevated the quality and diversity of incoming classes.

I help candidates turn strong resumes and complex life stories into clear, compelling MBA applications that stand out. My strength is storytelling with structure.
