Kristen was the best admissions consultant that I could've worked with because of her personalized feedback and the care that she put into my story for each of the schools I applied for. Working with her allowed me to get admission at Wharton with Fellowship, LBS with Fellowship, and at Sloan. We crafted my applications across 4+ months from the beginning sessions diving into my background (personal and professional) and my MBA goals. Even the way I presented my most poignant stories in this "development" phase were already sources for Kristen to provide me with feedback on what to highlight for each specific school, and how I should "show" and not "tell". We worked through 3+ iterations of each school's set of essays (and some of them even 5+ back and forth versions) to which she provided timely feedback (1-2 days max) and offered up live time in her calendar to chat through the feedback. She was helpful in providing feedback on my resume and short answers as well, which are areas that shouldn't be overlooked in an application. She fully surpassed my expectations in what an admissions consultant can help with, and I could not recommend her enough!

I had a fantastic experience working with Kristin as my MBA consultant. She was incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially when navigating my challenging scheduling needs. Beyond that, her insights into the application process and essays were invaluable. She struck the perfect balance between incorporating my perspective and pushing me to add more specificity and depth where it mattered most. Her guidance helped ensure my essays clearly reflected my personal brand, experiences, and long-term goals. The results speak for themselves, as I was accepted into my top-choice program, and I would highly recommend her to anyone pursuing an MBA application process

When I last applied in 2015, I did not gain admission into any programs that I seriously considered. This year, although I was already familiar with the MBA application process, Kristen really helped me to hone my story and create a more cohesive application. She also showed a willingness to answer any and all questions that I had. Finally, she offered great insight into how I could write stronger essays and showcase my strengths in my application. I will now be starting a MBA Program with the Ross School in Fall 2021 with $100K scholarship. I would highly recommend her services for anybody looking to apply for MBA Programs. Thank you, Kristen!

When I started to prepare my MBA application, I am very confident that I can show my love for dream school, so I spent over three months to DIY, and when I finally received a cold rejection letter, I was heart-broken and discouraged. I learned my lesson here, no matter how confident you are, to get into a dream school, you need more than passion, hard work, and score. Knowing what you don't know and get as much help as you can is also important.

When I sent my old application file to Kristen, she instantly noticed many mistakes I made. (I really wish I could know when I prepared my No1 dream school application). Kristen encouraged me to keep trying because my application content is good, needs a better strategy to make Me standout.

After our first call, she gave me a clear, simple, and smart strategy which tailored to myself but made my story more compelling. The problem I previously had was I had too many ideas, and I cannot express my thoughts in a few hundreds of words. When she returned my essays, I felt, yeah, Kristen's writing is so smart! She not only polish my writing, but also raised questions to let me add details by myself, so my essay is still MY essay, which reflects a real me, but in a much better way. Comparing when I asked other friends to help, sometimes, either they make a little real contribution, or they rephrased my essays in a way I feel not authentic or killed my character. But in Kristen's version, she is very good at finding my shining point and instructed me to explore more in detail. With her profound experience, Kristen knows how to set a good theme, and express ideas in a nice strategy that I wanted but felt hard to express by myself.

Kristen's edit on my resume also upgrades my resume to another level. makes me realize that my resume can also be a compelling tool too, I thought my resume was perfect, however, after her consult and edit, I felt it is much more impressive tailored to the MBA admission office.

I strongly recommend Kristen and felt her job much worth the money. She also quickly turned around in three days, and substantially alleviate my pain when my due is in a week. I may be the last application, but still, get in. I am very glad I asked her for help and this decision made my dream come true.

Thank you for your excellent help.
