Let's get you into the school of your dreams. To maximize your success, I follow a flexible-but-comprehensive coaching package: 1. Brainstorming: To begin, we start by ideating deeply about who you are as a person, your important experiences in life, and your goals going forward. This is the canvas upon which we create an application story and target schools. 2. Storytelling Strategy: Once we have a goal set out, it's time to strategize on what your story is. This is where the magic happens and we synthesize components into meaningful themes. 4. Recommendations: Once the essays start to take shape, it's time to figure out what missing pieces the recommenders can fill in. I'll share a recommender briefing memo template to get your recommenders up to speed and advise them on best practices. 5. Resume: The resume then complements the major application themes with key facts using my MBA-ready resume template. 6. Application: Then we round out the essays, resume, and recommendations with short answers and ruthless, powerful editing to stay within challenging character limits. 7. Interviews: Then congratulations! It's time for your interview. Through mock sessions grounded in extensive interviewing and strategic communications experience, I'll help you become polished and nerve-free for interviews.
