Traditional Full-Time MBA Admissions Coaches

I’m a Harvard Business School MBA, Techstars-backed founder, and VP of Product in fintech. I grew up first gen and low income with no roadmap. I invested in Forte and MLT, built the playbook from scratch, and learned what top MBA programs are actually optimizing for. Now I coach ambitious applicants, especially first gen and non-obvious candidates, with direct feedback, pattern recognition, and a clear strategy across positioning, essays, and execution. I’ve coached 100+ people across MBA admissions and career pivots. I can help with school strategy, career narrative, essays, resume, recommendations, interviews, and waitlist strategy. If you want someone who will tell you the truth and keep you accountable, book an intro call.

As a Wharton MBA graduate with 10 years in consulting, product management, and strategy & ops at BCG, Amazon, and Uber, I know what top programs look for. I help applicants craft compelling stories, strengthen essays, and prepare for interviews with clarity and confidence -- guiding them step by step toward MBA admission.

As a graduate of Stanford GSB with an MBA and an MS in Electrical Engineering, and as the co-founder of Aineko, I bring extensive experience in both the technology and business realms. My journey from engineering to product and go-to-market leadership has endowed me with a unique interdisciplinary perspective, which I leverage to help my clients achieve success. I have effectively coached three international and US individuals through the MBA application process, assisting them in crafting compelling narratives and navigating the complexities of admissions. If you're seeking strategic guidance and a holistic approach to your MBA application, let's connect and turn your aspirations into reality!"

I have a Bachelor's degree from Cornell University, where I worked with the Dean of Admissions, and a Master's degree from the Stanford Graduate School of Business (with acceptances from Harvard Business School, MIT Sloan, Chicago Booth and others). I excel at crafting holistic applicant stories to ensure every part of your application (essays, letters of recommendation, resume, etc.) add value to your candidacy. Outside of school, I was most recently a Senior Manager/Associate Director at SharkNinja, leading go-to-market strategy and managing a team of senior associates. My main motivation for coaching is getting to know people outside my circles and helping bring talented profiles the light they deserve! I have successfully coached 18 clients, working through the journey of school selection, essay editing and holistic application formation. I'd love to work together to craft a compelling application that stands out!

Graduating Harvard undergraduate, I applied for and was accepted to 5 top business schools. Since then, I've helped many students apply and join top schools across the country. Happy to work with you on finding your story and telling a novel narrative, fine-tuning essays, and strategizing schools.

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.

- I have worked with multiple M7 Admissions Committee members to build out sitreps2Steercos, a military to business school transition resource. - My GMAT score is 97th percentile and I received multiple acceptances to M7 schools (currently enrolled at Wharton).

Having gone through the MBA application process and achieved admittance to the five schools to which I applied (Booth, Darden, HBS, Kellogg, and Wharton), I know the dedication required to submit compelling applications that yield your desired result. In addition to this, I've helped a number of prospective MBAs think through their interest in business schools in general, as well as strategize to improve their candidacy. This has ranged from advice on taking specific courses to demonstrate capabilities in weak areas (e.g., 3-credit online, quantitative course to balance a humanities major or a low undergrad quant grade) to tactical tips on navigating a waitlist successfully and receiving an offer of admission. This has also included guidance on GMAT and GRE prep and big-picture thinking to investigate a targeted list of post-MBA career options. I came from a more traditional background at first glance (investment banking, private equity) but had a non-traditional major (Art History) coupled with a personal passion (sustainability) that I hadn't yet explored professionally, but was committed to pursuing in the future. Strengthening weak spots while weaving together my divergent experiences and interests (art, music, Italian language and culture, volunteer tutoring, environmentalism, finance) in my application and detailing my targeted career path (sustainable finance) was a challenging but rewarding experience. I'd love to help you think through links between the many diverse and seemingly disconnected experiences we often have when applying to MBA programs.
