Thanks for sharing your profile. Really interesting professional background with some strong numericals (GPA/GMAT). Coming from an education background will add a bit of a unique element to your background especially if you can frame it as a personal and professional passion which I think for you is probably what it is. Combine this passion with your coaching and leadership and you have a well synced story particularly since you eventually want to work in education again down the line. You should be competitive for most of the schools on your list with MIT/Harvard/Kellogg probably being the most competitive with Kellogg being one of the better fits for your background given the strong consulting recruiting and strong education/non-profit learning opportunities.
Hope this helps!
