Hi there! I'm Siri. I’m originally from Philadelphia, where I graduated from Drexel University with a B.S. in Information Systems. I was admitted to HBS via the 2+2 program. Currently, I'm a Product Marketing Manager at Microsoft. My experiences lie at the intersection of tech, business, and people. If my profile resonates with you, let’s chat!

Katie’s Product Marketing Qualifications

Experience level: Associate

Open to working with clients outside the U.S.

Welcome to my profile! I was accepted into Microsoft’s ACE Program (<0.5% acceptance rate), a 2-year rotation experience designed for new grads to accelerate their marketing careers, without a referral or connection to the company. I leveraged my recruiting experiences to help family and friends land their dream internships/jobs too. As a freshman in undergrad, I had big dreams: land a job in Big Tech. However, 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 authenticity and value of 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.
