You're welcome.
I think you are aiming a bit too high if you apply only to these programs. Your work experience is good, but unless you have a high level of achievement, it's on the low side. Your GMAT is average for these programs and a tad below average for a few (Ross, Darden, UCLA.) Your GPA is below average for all, especially the three i just listed and Fuqua. So if you want to apply to these schools, go for it; you're in the ball park. However, add at least one or two schools where your chances of acceptance are higher and that still support your goals. Georgetown and Vanderbilt come to mind. Perhaps also consider University of Maryland.
Best,
Linda

Thanks for the advice Linda! I'll definitely look into these schools.
One question about my GMAT. I think if I re-take the GMAT, I can maybe get a 710-720, anything higher I believe will be unrealistic. Will an extra 20-30 points help my case that much?
As for my WE I think my achievements are quite significant. I was the first analyst to be promoted to senior analyst out of my cohort, I serve as a mentor to new analysts starting this year, and I was key in fostering relationships with one of our clients, awarding us the contract. (I am asking the customer to write one of my letters of rec)
I am pretty much putting my chips on my WE and references letters to offset the below average GMAT and GPA.
