Traditional Full-Time MBA Admissions Experts

When I was in your shoes, I could not afford an admissions consulting firm, or to pay a former adcom member who only understands how one school thinks. I personally authored 100% of my end-to-end applications (essays, CVs, interview preparation, etc.) without these resources. Through a deep understanding of how to craft an authentic application, I was admitted to four Ivy League undergraduate schools, as well as to all three of the deferred MBA programs: HBS 2+2, Stanford Deferred Enrollment, and Yale SOM Silver Scholars program. My clients have been admitted to all SEVEN top MBA programs, including all three deferred MBA programs. I coach to give prospective students like you access to gold-standard application prep that will turbocharge your ability to land admissions ACROSS all top business schools: -- Without the admissions consulting firm price tag -- With the perspective of someone who has been admitted to and attended multiple Ivy League schools (vs. an adcom member who only understands the perspective of one) 💯

Stanford MBA / Stanford + Harvard JD admitee. I got into these programs after years of GMAT/LSAT study and concerted research on every element of the application process. I was asked to interview for Stanford MBA on day 1 and I was interviewed by Mary Barra (CEO of General Motors), so I have intimidating interview prep experience. I was accepted without being waitlisted. Looking back, I had an abysmal starting point, with a very naive concept of what a sterling essay or LoR might look like. But I meticulously sought out how to craft each element masterfully. I also developed a study plan that got me to a 770 GMAT (51 on math after a middling score) and helped me ace the logic and nearly ace the logical reasoning sections of the LSAT. I had spent over a year studying for the GMAT only to have a middle-of-the-road math score. Then I diligently pieced together a plan by studying those who aced the math portion and bumped my score to 51 (effectively the max) on the GMAT math. I did something similar for the LSAT logic sections (3/4 of the test). My pitch: I will concisely help you get from mediocre to maximum on every element of your application and test-taking process for MBA and JD programs. I have helped multiple people, with a relatively small amount of time and tight timeframe, get into Yale's JD program and interview for Stanford's MBA program with guidance it took me years to distill. I'll do the same for you. Once at Stanford, I led an initiative among 100+ incoming Stanford GSB students to collaboratively prepare for advanced-level coursework, resulting in the highest number of students in advanced courses in the school's history. Multiple classmates went on to pursue highly technical careers in part because of it. I'll help you strategize for this too!

As a former McKinsey Engagement Manager and passionate supporter of aspiring MBA candidates, I specialize in guiding individuals through all stages of the admissions process. I’ve helped 10+ candidates at various stages, including selecting the right schools, developing essay and recommendation strategies, refining resumes, and preparing for interviews. For myself, even without a stellar GMAT score, I secured interviews at all the schools I applied to with an out-of-the box story, and I can help you achieve the same. My unique European perspective and creative storytelling skills have helped clients craft applications that captivate admissions committees. Let’s work together to unlock your potential and achieve your MBA dreams!

I’ve been through the process myself, know the nuances that top programs look for, and can help candidates translate their experiences into a differentiated, authentic narrative. Beyond the application, I can guide candidates through interview prep, school selection strategy, and framing their post-MBA career story.

Welcome! I am currently an MBA candidate at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and earned my Bachelor of Business Administration with highest honors from the Red McCombs School of Business at UT Austin. Professionally, I’ve worked across investment banking, private equity, and strategic finance, partnering with founders, corporate boards, and institutional investors to shape business narratives and navigate complex strategic decisions. I approach admissions the same way investors evaluate opportunities: through leadership, judgment, trajectory — and, most importantly, fit. The strongest applications show not only why you want a school, but why that specific school is positioned to accelerate your goals. I particularly enjoy working with applicants pursuing careers in business or finance, though I help candidates across backgrounds move beyond resume bullets and develop thoughtful, authentic stories about motivation and impact. My focus isn’t just essay polishing; it’s helping you articulate a narrative that explains your past, shows intentionality in the present, and convincingly points to your future — all while remaining true to who you are. I’d be excited to work together.

I know what it takes to stand out in the most competitive rooms in the world because I’ve built my career in them. I’m a Harvard MBA and Harvard College graduate, venture capital investor, and Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree. I’ve evaluated hundreds of founders and companies, sat in investment committees, and seen firsthand how decision-makers assess potential, leadership, and polish. As a current HBS student, I also understand the admissions process from the inside and what truly differentiates candidates. I help ambitious, high-agency applicants turn strong resumes into compelling, cohesive narratives. Many candidates undersell themselves or tell stories that are impressive but forgettable. I work with you to clarify your “why,” sharpen your positioning, and articulate a trajectory that feels bold, authentic, and inevitable. As a founder and investor, I approach your application through the lens of differentiation and strategy. What is your unfair advantage? What impact are you uniquely positioned to have? Together, we craft an application that commands attention. If you’re aiming for top programs and want a coach who understands elite institutions and high-performance environments, I would love to work with you.

I help cautious people leap and impulsive people land. I'm warm and I'm direct, and I'll ask the question you've been circling around. I focus on helping you think clearly enough to trust your own judgment. My experience: I'm a tech strategist, Berkeley Haas MBA, and former teacher-turned-management-consultant, with a splash of finance (summer internship in IB at JPM). I've pivoted and landed career changes without a roadmap, which why I enjoy helping others do the same. Post MBA, I built deep expertise in strategy and operations at LinkedIn and Salesforce, and I know how big organizations actually work from the inside. I started my career as a Teach For America corps member, where I learned what relentless pursuit of results really means, and that great coaching meets people where they are. While at Berkeley Haas, I was selected as a Graduate Student Instructor for Negotiations based on exemplary performance, and I coached and mentored students through one of the most competitive courses in the MBA curriculum. By going for my MBA later in my career, I focused on the courses some MBAs gloss over: Power & Politics and Interpersonal Dynamics ("Touchy Feely"), the course co-taught with Stanford on feedback, conflict, and the conversations most people avoid. I also facilitated Dialogues on Race. Four courses in how humans influence, navigate difference, and build trust, and I've been on both sides of these classrooms. As VP of Admissions for the Haas MBA student association, I reviewed applications and helped candidates tell stories that were actually theirs. I know what gets someone in and what doesn't.

Welcome to my profile! I recently graduated from Cornell Johnson, where I was actively involved in both MBA admissions and student mentorship throughout my time in business school. As a member of the Johnson Admissions Group, I interviewed MBA applicants and wrote admissions recommendations as part of the evaluation process. Through that experience, I gained firsthand insight into how candidates are evaluated and what makes an application feel compelling, authentic, and memorable. I also worked closely with fellow students throughout recruiting and career preparation, helping many navigate high-pressure processes that required strong storytelling, self-awareness, and confidence. Before business school, I worked across marketing, analytics, and business operations roles at companies including FAT Brands and Jane, as well as within my family’s business. Coming from a less traditional pre-MBA background myself, I understand how overwhelming the MBA admissions process can sometimes feel, especially when it seems like everyone else already knows exactly how to position their experiences. My coaching style is supportive, practical, and highly personalized. I enjoy helping candidates identify the strongest parts of their story, communicate their experiences more clearly, and build applications that feel strategic while still staying authentic to who they are.
