HBS '24 | Passionate coach with client successes across M7 and beyond
I was admitted to HBS in the 2022 cycle, despite having a lower-than-average GMAT, being a first-generation college student, and not hiring a consultant for myself. I'm now a recent graduate from Harvard Business School with extensive experience coaching friends and clients through their MBA applications over the last two years. I was one of six students from my year chosen to participate in HBS' admissions committee, where I supported the admissions team with welcoming students to campus and sharing advice on applying to HBS. Meanwhile, I was actively supporting my friends in their business school ambitions, who are attending HBS, Sloan, Wharton, and Anderson. During the last two MBA application cycles, I have helped at least one client get accepted into all M7 schools. Out of my clients, 5 will be attending HBS, 3 at GSB, 1 at Wharton, 2 at Sloan, 2 at Booth, 1 at Columbia, and 0 for Kellogg (maybe this year). I work full-time at Bain as a consultant, so this is simply something that I'm passionate about and want to continue doing on the side. I ask that if you're coming to me you're serious about applying and working through this process together, as I don't anticipate taking too many clients this year.
