Columbia MIA & MBA | U.S. Govt to Grad School

Welcome to your next inflection point! I'm a dual degree Master of International Affairs + MBA candidate at Columbia SIPA + Business School, with a nontraditional background that bridges government, policy, and finance. I know what it’s like to navigate the world of public policy programs -- crafting a compelling narrative, translating interdisciplinary experience, and getting into top schools without a traditional profile. Now, I help others do the same. Whether you’re just starting your application journey or fine-tuning your essays and interviews, I bring structure, perspective, and clarity to help your story shine. From MPPs to MIAs and MPAs, I work with mission-driven candidates who are ready to lead. Let’s get to work!
