When I started my MBA admissions journey, I decided I would figure out the admissions process myself. In hindsight, I wish I hadn't. Writing essays for each of my target schools and editing and re-editing my resume was an arduous process that would have been more efficient had I sought advice from someone who had been through the process. Ultimately, I landed admits from multiple M7 and top 15 MBA programs, and received my MBA from University of Michigan's Ross School of Business on full scholarship. During this process I learned much about what makes for a successful MBA applicant and interviewed many successful (and unsuccessful) candidates as an admissions interviewer. I have firsthand insight into what top business schools are looking for in candidates and a proven track record of helping applicants craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths and experiences. Whether you need guidance on application strategy, essay writing, or interview preparation, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's connect and make your MBA dreams a reality!

As a graduate of the Full-Time MBA program at the Johnson School at Cornell combined with 5+ years of experience coaching full-time MBA students on career goals and the recruiting processes, my approach to MBA admissions is a little different. Many enter with the goal "I want to get into school X." I prefer to zoom out and ask two simple questions: - What are your short-term MBA career goals? - What type of experience do you want for the duration of the two-year program? Answering these questions honestly will help you better develop a target school list and be able to better articulate in your essays and in the admissions interview why an MBA makes sense for you, ,why that school is the best fit, and what your short and long term career goals are post MBA. There's a lot more to getting a Full-Time MBA than going to the highest ranked school you can get into, because those rankings don't take into account your personal goals and preferences.

Welcome to my profile! As an MBA candidate at Harvard Business School, I bring experience in management consulting and AI product management. I am passionate about helping candidates with their MBA applications, especially those with non-traditional backgrounds. I received coaching during my own application process, and it completely changed how I viewed my story. Coming from NGOs, academia, and geopolitical consulting, I initially worried my background didn't fit the MBA mold. Having a coach in my corner helped me realize that what felt like weaknesses were actually my biggest strengths. Outside of school, I enjoy cooking, hiking, and rooting for New York sports teams. I'd love to help you build a compelling application that gets you into your dream school!
