Booth, GSB, Wharton | Storytelling Expert | Strategy & Wellness Consultant

Annie is an experienced and passionate coach who uses the power of storytelling to inspire humanity and empower individual growth. She went through the deferred admissions process last year, and successfully crafted a strategic & holistic narrative despite having a sub-par GMAT score, received interviews with Stanford GSB, UPenn Wharton, and Chicago Booth programs, and received letters of recommendation from highly influential people such as the business school dean, a Partner at a Big 4 firm, and world-class faculty. Now, as a Michigan Ross graduate and a deferred admit to the University of Chicago Booth Scholars Program, she hopes to offer comprehensive assistance to students who are looking to apply for deferred MBAs. At the University of Michigan, Annie served as an academic writing coach for underresourced first-years hoping to transfer into the competitive Michigan Ross business school, so she has reviewed over 20 application essays from diverse students, and deeply understands what top business programs are looking for in their candidates. As a first-generation college student, Annie has always highly valued education and conducts thorough research to further her abilities. She is seeking not just coachees, but mentees, who come from underrepresented backgrounds to provide complete resource guides, top-secret tips to the application process, and a thorough review and analysis of their application essays.
