Welcome to my profile! I was accepted into deferred MBA programs at the Harvard Business School and Wharton School of Business after graduating from a non-target school with an 82% acceptance rate. I had big dreams in undergrad: get into an M7 business school. But, I had no connections, no target background, and no clue how to get there. I share this because if I can do it, you can too. My journey taught me the power of authentic storytelling. Allow me to share my experience and help you craft a striking application, bringing your unique story to light.

Why do I coach?
It took me 8+ months to craft my MBA applications. Coming from a non-target background, I was learning about the admissions process as I was writing my applications. I distinctly remember how demanding the process was - countless hours spent on GMAT prep, drafting essays, and building relationships with my recommenders. I could not imagine getting through it without help. I was lucky to have dedicated mentors and coaches who invested in my potential with their time and wisdom. Their encouragement kept me going on the days when I wanted to give up. As a candidate who went through the process myself, I’m here to offer empathetic support and honest feedback, pushing you toward your goal. I will leverage my learnings to streamline your application process.
