Traditional Full-Time MBA Admissions Experts

Welcome to my profile! I am an MBA student at Harvard Business School and a former consultant at McKinsey & Company, with an academic background in engineering and professional experience in product and strategy consulting. Even with a less-than-competitive GMAT score, I was fortunate to be accepted to every top MBA program I applied to in the US and Europe, and I want to help you find that same success, and some joy, in your own application journey. I have successfully coached five clients, helping them craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths and experiences. Whether you need guidance on application strategy, essay writing, or interview preparation, I am here to help you navigate the MBA admissions process.

I got into Columbia Business School off the waitlist with a $100K scholarship. I'm Josh, and as a re-applicant and "non-traditional" candidate who comes from an over-represented demographic background, I understand how confusing and challenging the MBA application process can be. Currently, I'm a rising 2Y at Columbia Business School who is passionate about entrepreneurship and early-stage investing. I work part-time as an early-stage VC investor and hold several leadership positions in both school clubs and non-profit organizations. In my free time, I'm working towards scratch golf and my first Ironman triathlon. Prior to b-school... -> I bootstrapped, crowdfunded, and raised VC for my CPG startup -> Graduated from UC Berkeley with a BA in Political Science -> Worked in tech as a Senior Product Manager at Western Digital Corporation -> Freelanced as a consultant for early-stage startups and VC firms Since starting my own MBA journey, I've helped dozens of people start theirs. If you're wondering whether an MBA is worth it, trying to find your voice in the application, or fighting to get off a waitlist — let's talk.
