If you are preparing for a consulting case interview or an MBA admissions interview, you have found the right coach. I am a former McKinsey consultant — where I was trained and certified as an official interviewer — and I currently work as a strategy consultant in the renewable energy industry. I hold an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, one of the top business programs in the world, and a Master of Science in Civil Engineering from UC Berkeley. I have sat on both sides of these interviews, and I know exactly what it takes to walk in prepared and walk out with an offer.

Teaching and mentorship have been a constant thread throughout my career. During three years as a university engineering instructor, I held daily office hours where I tutored college students across five civil and environmental engineering courses — in both in-person and online settings. That experience sharpened my ability to meet students where they are, adapt to different learning styles, and break down complex ideas into concepts that actually stick. My core teaching philosophy is simple: people learn best through examples, not theory. That is a big part of why I love case interview coaching — every new case is a real-world business problem in action, making each session an opportunity to build genuine intuition rather than just memorize frameworks.

Whether you are targeting McKinsey, Bain, or BCG, or working to earn a seat at a top MBA program, I will bring the same energy, honesty, and preparation to your sessions that I bring to my own work every day. I would love to help you get there.

Business

Business

I hold an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, one of the most respected business programs in the world, and launched my post-MBA career at McKinsey & Company — widely recognized as the world's premier consulting firm. I currently work as a strategy consultant in the renewable energy sector, meaning the business frameworks and analytical approaches I teach are ones I apply to complex, real-world problems every day.
Interview Prep

Interview Prep

I specialize in two of the most high-stakes interviews you will face: MBA admissions and consulting case interviews. For MBA prep, sessions focus on sharpening your story, aligning your experience with program values, and preparing for tough fit and behavioral questions. For case interviews, I draw on my time as a certified McKinsey interviewer to drill the skills that matter most — structured thinking, quantitative reasoning, and executive communication. Whichever path you are on, you will get honest, specific feedback and a clear roadmap to improve.
