Hello,
I like the looks of your profile overall, but that low GPA will certainly be a weight around your neck. You've done the right things with the CC courses, and your GMAT score is good, so there's not much more you can do there. Your recent coursework and GMAT will help, but to a certain extent your GPA "is what it is," and you'll just have to take your chances with it.
If you want to go into management consulting, pay close attention to which schools the top firms go to for talent. After the top dozen or so schools, an MBA program probably won't give you the on-campus recruiting opportunities you want for competitive MC firms.
Good luck!
Scott
