Hello, super strong profile but would appreciate knowing more about your story (UG College, Companies, extra-curricular, etc.). Till I wait that, here is a quick evaluation from our side:

Profile strength: Strong 5 years in consulting/strategic communications, consistent promotions, and robust project management experience. Academics are solid (GPA 3.64) and GRE 327 is competitive for most top programs.

Strengths:

Clear career trajectory in consulting, with increasing responsibility and impact.

Post-MBA goal aligned with pre-MBA experience — makes a credible story.

US work experience is relevant for Wharton, Columbia, and Darden; also appealing for LBS due to global exposure.

Key focus areas:

Essays should highlight leadership, measurable impact, and strategy orientation.

Given your GRE score, you are already competitive, but strong storytelling and application framing will be decisive.

For LBS, make sure to emphasize global mindset and cross-border impact.

Verdict:
This is a credible profile for Wharton, Columbia, and Darden, and competitive for LBS with a strong application narrative. You might also consider applying to Kellogg or Tuck as additional options, given your consulting trajectory.
