Do you want to feel confident and instead of anxiety, have a sense of genuine excitement for your upcoming interviews? 

 🤷🏻‍♀️ There is no secret: Mastering the entire process is the key -  I’m here to teach you how!

I'm an skilled coach with a passion for business case structuring, problem solving techniques and expert at behavioral interviews prep (one of my interviewers at McKinsey literally told me he would never forget my personal experience interview - no BS here).

With over 200 sessions under my belt, I learned that what land offers in consulting is thoughtful preparation and hard work - which doesn’t mean doing +100 cases, but rather relentlessly focusing on what YOU need to develop to present a top performance.

Before succeeding in my own consulting interviews, I had to improve my structuring, math and communication skills - yes, I was all over the place! After putting in the hard work, these areas became strengths that continue to serve me in real life.

If I could develop these skills and land an offer at McKinsey, you can, too. I’m here to guide you every step of the way with a thoughtful, results-driven approach to make your consulting goals a reality!

Longer story below:

I wasn’t your typical consulting candidate. 🧐

 -   I came from a public school with limited math resources, applied for MBB consulting at the age of 26 (post grad), and was juggling a demanding 44-hour work week while studying at night. On top of that, I struggled with math anxiety and didn’t have a polished, structured way of speaking. Needless to say, I applied to MBB companies and fell short at the case interview stage.

- I committed to studying every day and practiced consistently to build the skills I lacked. Along the process, I understood what was effective and what was just wasting my precious time.

- My hard work paid off 🏆  I placed first in the McKinsey Impact Experience competition among more than 3000 competitors and, in that same year, became the only person from my university to receive an offer from McKinsey. 
- After joining the Firm, in my spare time as a consultant, I went on to become an internal McKinsey case interview faculty, where I supported several new candidates and delivered training sessions to help others succeed in their oncoming case interviews.

- Today, I use these experiences to help people like you break into top consulting firms. My approach focuses on what I learned firsthand: identifying the key areas of the case interview one must focus and building great personal stories, presenting achievements in a way that commands attention.

- I’m a truly believer that anyone can make into consulting, if one is committed to it.

I know how overwhelming the journey can be because I’ve been there. Let me guide you through the learning process so you can study with focus, efficiency and peace of mind. I can’t wait to be your coach!

I’m a realistic-optimistic coach. I believe anyone can make it to consulting IF they’re truly committed to the learning process.

My approach is to laser focus on the gaps one has to make sure the candidate is confident in all parts of the case using a structured approach. Additionally, making sure one has compelling real stories that will WOW interviewers (50% of candidates get rejected in this part which is often overlooked).
