About Sreelatha
I’m an Indian engineer turned management consultant, now pursuing my MBA at Wharton. Like many others, I had what some might call a “cookie-cutter” profile — and I constantly wondered how I’d ever stand out. I didn’t come from finance, didn’t have an Ivy League degree, and I wasn’t the loudest voice in the room. But I was curious, reflective, and committed to doing the work. I poured myself into the MBA application process — researching obsessively, networking widely, and rewriting my story until it felt authentic. I received interview invites from every school I applied to and ultimately chose Wharton. At the core of my journey is a deep passion for healthcare. With an undergraduate degree in biotechnology, experience in life sciences consulting, and now an MBA, I’m charting my path to becoming a leader in the healthcare space — whether through finance or operating roles. I’m driven by the opportunity to make systems better, more accessible, and more impactful for the people they serve.
Why do I coach?
Because I was that person — overwhelmed, overthinking, and constantly wondering if I was doing it “right.” I didn’t have a traditional profile, and I doubted myself a lot. What helped me the most were a few mentors and peers who offered honest feedback, encouragement, and clarity when I needed it most. I coach because I know how lonely and confusing this process can feel — whether it’s MBA admissions, GMAT prep, or breaking into a whole new industry. I don’t have all the answers, but I do know how to ask the right questions, give you structure, and help you move forward with confidence. Coaching, for me, is about being that trusted voice in the moments when you’re doubting yours.
