I had an outstanding experience working with VP throughout my MBA application journey. The team provided thoughtful, highly personalized guidance that helped me craft a compelling narrative, strengthen my applications, and make confident decisions along the way. Their feedback was sharp and actionable, communication was always timely, and the level of support throughout the process was exceptional. Most importantly, the results spoke for themselves: I was admitted to all four schools I applied to, including two T10 programs and two M7 schools. I would strongly recommend VP to anyone looking for a strategic, supportive, and highly effective MBA admissions partner.

Kristen was a fantastic mentor and I'm so glad to have worked with her during the application process. A few of her highlights and why that worked well for me:
1) She recommended that we do a few brainstorming exercises in the beginning rather than jumping straight into the essay writing process. This helped me clarify why I wanted an MBA and my attributes to highlight in the application.
2) She's an incredible story-teller and kept me focused on "why this matters." I was able to deliver my points a lot clearer with her guidance.
3) I found her mentorship to be the right balance between constructive feedback without overbearing. She was always interested in my story and keeping it authentic to me, and never imposed her recommendations on what a good story should sound like.
Overall, really fortunate to have worked with Kristen and would highly recommend!

Working with Kristen on my MBA applications was one of the best decisions I made in the process. She had a sharp eye for what each program was really looking for and helped me strengthen my essays in ways I wouldn't have seen on my own, pushing past surface-level edits to make sure my career goals came through clearly and authentically. She also overhauled how I was presenting my experience on my resume, tightening the formatting and framing so it actually told a story. What I valued most, though, was that she was never afraid to give me honest, critical feedback. When my application wasn't where it needed to be for Round 1, she told me directly and pushed me to wait for Round 2, advice that was hard to hear in the moment but absolutely right. I genuinely don't think I would have gotten into both Harvard and Stanford without her.

I truly cannot recommend Kristen enough!

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!

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.
