Traditional Full-Time MBA Admissions Coaches

Having gone through the MBA admissions process myself, I know exactly how daunting it can feel, crafting your story, writing essays that stand out, and walking into admissions interviews with confidence. I hold an MBA and MSc in Design Innovation from Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management, one of the world's top business programs. Born in Shanghai and educated across Hong Kong and the US, I understand the unique challenges international candidates face, from positioning a non-Western career narrative to communicating across cultural contexts in essays and interviews. I'm fluent in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese, which allows me to work closely with candidates from Chinese-speaking backgrounds navigating the US admissions process. I help candidates find and articulate their unique story, position their experience compellingly, and prepare for interviews at top programs. Whether you're figuring out which programs to target or polishing your final essays, I'll give you honest, direct feedback that moves your application forward.

Welcome to my profile! I bring firsthand, recent success navigating top MBA admissions, having interviewed at 6 of the 9 M7 + top programs I applied to and securing 5 offers, including admits to Harvard Business School, Kellogg School of Management, Chicago Booth, UC Berkeley Haas, and Darden School of Business. I scored a 335 on the GRE (170Q, 165V) and understand how to build a strong, differentiated application across academics, career narrative, and leadership positioning. Professionally, I have experience across social impact, early stage startups, and global companies, which helps me coach applicants, especially those from product, technology, and impact-focused roles, on how to articulate leadership, scale, and measurable impact clearly and strategically. Through my work leading and mentoring in women-focused product communities, I have guided early and mid career professionals on positioning themselves for competitive opportunities. I take a structured, honest, and encouraging approach to help applicants refine their strategy, craft compelling essays, and prepare confidently for interviews.

I graduated from Columbia Business School after being admitted to multiple top 20 MBA programs and earning a full ride scholarship for both years. I’ve helped several applicants across the U.S. get into competitive programs by guiding them through every step of the process, including essays, resumes, interviews, and waitlist strategy. As both an MBA grad and a founder, I know how to help you tell a story that’s personal, compelling, and strategic. I believe the best MBA applications come from real self-awareness and clarity, not perfection. Whether you’re just starting your applications or polishing the final draft, I’ll meet you where you are and help you present your best story.

I’ve been on both sides of the MBA admissions process, including getting rejected one year and accepted the next, and that experience fundamentally shapes how I coach. I earned my MBA from Stanford GSB after initially being turned down, and I know firsthand that success isn’t about becoming “more impressive,” but about becoming clearer, more honest, and more intentional in how you tell your story. I especially enjoy working with nontraditional candidates who have taken risks, pursued unconventional paths, or are charting their own way forward. Before business school, I worked at McKinsey & Company and later led large-scale operations at Rocket Internet and Uber across multiple countries. Since then, I’ve founded and scaled mission-driven companies, including the country's largest worker cooperative, raised capital, served on boards, and won a Tony as a Broadway producer. I coach applicants to articulate not just what they’ve done, but why it matters, how they think, and who they are as leaders. My approach is candid, strategic, and deeply personal. I help you identify the through-line in your experiences, pressure-test your goals, and craft essays that sound like you, not a consultant-written version of you. I’m particularly well-suited to working with nontraditional candidates, reapplicants, and those navigating career pivots, because I’ve lived those paths myself.
