About Atharva

I am super excited to be attending HBS in a couple years as a 2+2 deferred MBA admit. Working with others to help them achieve their goals is truly a passion of mine. As a recent deferred admit to HBS, the application process is still quite fresh in my mind. I know the challenges with securing high test scores, writing authentic essays and nailing the interview. Hopefully I will get the opportunity to share that with you and see you get admitted to the school of your dreams! I recently graduated from the Georgia Institute of Technology (a public university), where I studied Biomedical Engineering with a minor in Spanish language. My background in engineering helps me connect with STEM students looking to pursue an MBA. I've focused all of my work experience in the medical device/biotech/healthcare space. In college, I spent a year with Johnson & Johnson working as a Design R&D Engineer, worked for Becton Dickinson (a large medical device company) and was the lead design engineer of a biotech startup looking to make point of care diagnostics, including Covid tests. Most recently, I've joined Danaher as part of their operations leadership program, hoping to understand the intricacies of manufacturing and supply chain. The operating company I work for is a market leader in the Covid-19 diagnostic space. Outside of work, I've been a competitive swim coach for some of the world's top athletes. I've coached athletes and teams to multiple junior national titles, international competitions and a 3-time Olympian. I am confident in my ability to set goals and drive results in every facet of my life. I hope to bring this expertise to MBA coaching and helping you achieve your goals. I am most comfortable assisting with school selection, recommendation selection, essay writing, resume reviews, GRE test prep (quant) and interview prep. If any of this resonates with you, do not hesitate to reach out! I am very excited to work with you all to help you achieve your MBA goals.
