William’s MBA Qualifications
Open to working with clients outside the U.S.
William has helped clients get into these schools:
Of the 9 schools I applied to, I was accepted to 8, and waitlisted at 1. Given my unusual application timing (round 3 during Covid after being evacuated from Colombia with the Peace Corps while serving overseas) I have more first-hand experience than nearly anyone into these school's interviews and admissions processes. I received scholarships as well ranging from full-rides to partial at these schools and can advise on negotiations.
William can help with:
Financial Aid & Scholarships
Editing
Recommendations
Interviews
Ding Analysis
Waitlist Strategy
School Selection
Secondary Review

About William
I began my career as an investment banking analyst in Regions Bank's Restaurant Group, providing senior debt financing from $10MM to $1.2B. After three years at Regions, I taught entrepreneurship in Colombia for the United States Peace Corps before attending the University of Pennsylvania to study for an MBA from The Wharton School and an MA in International Studies from The Lauder Institute. For my MBA internship in 2021, I was a summer consultant for BCG before joining Wayflyer, an Irish fintech unicorn, as their first American underwriting hire, eventually building the US underwriting team to 9 before joining Nectar as Head of Underwriting in January 2023. Nectar funds preferred equity and mezzanine debt real estate investments I also have a BA in economics, cum laude, from Wake Forest University.
Why do I coach?
I enjoy helping people achieve their goals and have been an entrepreneurship teacher, financial education coach, Big Brother mentor, and sailing instructor at different points in my life. I love coaching others to be their best selves and look forward to helping others on their MBA journey.
