Get dedicated, full-cycle support for your top-choice MBA program. From crafting a compelling career narrative and refining your resume to selecting essay topics and preparing for interviews, I’ll guide you every step of the way. You’ll leave with an application that reflects your unique voice, backed by insider knowledge from my time on Columbia Business School’s admissions committee. What’s Included — and Why It Matters Kickoff Strategy Call We start with a deep-dive conversation to understand who you are and what you want. We’ll talk about your background, goals, school strategy, recommenders, and any potential gaps — so everything we do is rooted in clarity from the start. This call becomes the blueprint for the rest of your application. Career Goals & Narrative Building Admissions committees don’t just want to know what you’ve done — they want to know where you’re going and why. I’ll help you shape a detailed, thoughtful career narrative that makes your goals feel both ambitious and achievable, with a clear link to the MBA. Resume Review Your resume is often the first thing an admissions reader sees — and it needs to be tight, high-impact, and easy to scan. I’ll help reframe your achievements so they reflect leadership, growth, and results — not just job descriptions. Essay Strategy & Development Essays are where your story comes to life. I’ll help you choose the right topics, bring out your voice, and shape drafts that are reflective, compelling, and strategically aligned with what each school is looking for. We’ll iterate until the essays are ready. Recommendation Letter Support Strong recs don’t happen by accident. I’ll guide you in selecting the right recommenders and preparing them with tailored support materials so their letters reinforce your application strengths, not just repeat your resume. Short Answers & Application Review We’ll review every written section of the application — even the short questions that many applicants overlook — and I’ll walk through the online portal with you before you hit submit. Every field matters, and I’ll make sure nothing slips through the cracks. Interview Prep I’ll share real past questions, customized prep materials, and run a mock interview to help you feel prepared and confident for each school. Your application got you in the door — now we’ll help you shine in the room. How We’ll Work You’ll have a shared folder where all materials live, and a structured process that keeps us both on track. I return drafts quickly (usually within 2-24 hours), and I’m available for questions throughout because when your top-choice school is on the line, you shouldn’t have to wait for support.

Former M7 Adcom | 93% Success Rate | $180K Avg Scholarships
As a former M7 Admissions Director, I help you craft authentic, powerful applications that stand out and get results. Since 2017, I’ve helped hundreds of MBA-hopefuls get accepted to top MBA programs across full-time, executive, and part-time programs — and I look forward to helping you do the same. 93% of my clients achieve MBA success — and more than half secure scholarships averaging $180K. I served on Columbia Business School’s admission committee, where I reviewed countless applications, interviewed candidates, managed the world-wide interview program, served as a waitlist manager, and managed the dual degree programs for the Law, Medical, and Journalism schools. Thereafter, I transitioned into finance, with stints at a hedge fund, a large bank, and in venture capital. Yet, even as I built my career, I missed the part I loved most — helping candidates craft their stories. I returned to the admissions world as a coach. On the other side of the admissions journey, I saw critical gaps in the application process: limited guidance around testing, the challenge of telling narratives within the confines of a few essays and a resume is challenging, and how admissions committees can seem like a black box. My mission reflects these gaps - offer best-in-class advice, work closely with a small number of candidates, and provide personal partnership to every client.
