Welcome to my profile! I was born and raised in Saint Lucia, and since leaving for University, I’ve lived across 3 cities in two continents. Over the years, I have coached several clients, helping them craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths and experiences. Whether you need assistance with application strategy, essay writing, or interview preparation, I'm here to help you succeed. I’m a patient, and empathetic coach who is passionate about storytelling and lifting people up. I can’t wait to help you share your story with the Admissions team at the school of your dreams. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Physics from the University of Chicago and worked as a Trader and Investor in the competitive finance industry, both at J.P. Morgan and Goldman Sachs. As a Vice President at Goldman Sachs with a strong background in private credit and equity derivatives, I bring a wealth of real-world experience to my MBA coaching, especially for people looking to transition into a career in Finance.

As an accepted candidate to the University of Chicago's prestigious deferred MBA program, I bring firsthand experience and insights into the application and interview process. My journey involved extensive preparation and coaching, through which I gained a deep understanding of what the admissions committee values. I have had direct conversations with several members of the interview and admissions committee, including the director of admissions, providing me with unique perspectives on what makes a successful application. With this comprehensive background, I am well-equipped to guide and mentor others through the process, helping them to craft compelling applications, prepare for interviews, and ultimately achieve their goal of being admitted to this esteemed program.

Welcome to my profile! As a current MBA student at Harvard Business School and a Master in Public Policy candidate at Harvard Kennedy School, I bring a unique perspective on how to craft a compelling application and interdisciplinary narrative that stands out from the crowd (my application success rate was 100%). With experience coaching friends and colleagues, I am passionate about helping aspiring MBA candidates craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths and experiences. Let's work together!

With over twenty years of multifaceted professional and MBA admissions consulting experience, I am passionate about guiding high-potential applicants toward successful deferred MBA admissions. My commitment is to help you articulate your unique story and personal brand in an authentic and engaging way.

Whether you need comprehensive end-to-end guidance or targeted assistance with a specific component of your application, I provide honest, actionable feedback and individualized hands-on support to empower you to achieve your vision and goals. I bring a unique perspective to the MBA application process, combining extensive international business experience with a deep understanding of the admissions landscape and job market. I hold an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management and a BA from Swarthmore College.

Coming from a technical background, I understand how to form a storyline and appeal to business schools through the resume creation process and answering difficult essay questions while weaving in university experiences and credentials. I have had non-traditional roles for MBA admitted students and I believe that I can help the most for students coming from engineering/computer science/data science looking to pivot into a business background.

Your story is unique, and my goal as your MBA admissions coach is to help you tell it in a way that truly reflects who you are and what you want to achieve. The application process is a partnership. Together, we’ll dive into your experiences, uncover what drives you, and craft an application that’s authentic, compelling, and aligned with your goals. Whether you’re charting a bold career pivot, advancing in your field, or exploring an unconventional path, I’m here to support you every step of the way. My coaching style is collaborative and personalized. I’m not here to impose templates or generic advice, I’m here to help you shine in your own voice. We’ll work closely to highlight your achievements, refine your essays, and strategically position your strengths. From brainstorming ideas to navigating last-minute revisions, I’ll be in your corner as a trusted partner. With extensive experience coaching applicants into top MBA and dual-degree MBA/MPP programs (including Stanford GSB, Harvard Business School, Wharton, and MIT Sloan) I understand what it takes to stand out. My clients have successfully pivoted careers, secured scholarships, and been admitted to highly competitive programs. Whether you’re just starting to think about your applications or facing tight deadlines for Round 2 or Round 3, it’s not too late to create a compelling application. Let’s work together to craft a story that not only gets results but also feels true to who you are and where you’re headed.
