Bottom Line Up Front: Krista's services are worth every penny and then some. Thanks to Krista's support, I was accepted into HBS, Wharton, Ross, Darden, Fuqua, and others and received considerable scholarships.

I am on the older side of MBA applicants and have spent the majority of my professional years in the military. I initially struggled with my ability to convey my non-linear career trajectory in an impactful way. Krista was somehow able to tease out the nuances of my unusual journey and help me express my story in a way that improved my confidence and resonated with AdComs.

My MBA journey was unique in that while applying for programs, I was constantly deployed on short notice, submitting applications and conducting admissions interviews from four different locations. I was extremely fortunate to have Krista augment my application process and keep my applications on track. After our initial 30 minute free session, I curtailed my consultant search and went full send on Krista's excellent services.

What I needed was structure and rapid feedback during a process that I did not much time to allocate towards. Krista provided that that much-needed timelines and quick turnaround capacity that proved critical given my limited bandwidth for MBA application management. Her approach to each essay draft was meticulous, and she was always ready to jump on a Zoom call to help organize my applications effectively. I initially had not planned on applying to any M7 programs thinking I was not a competitive applicant, but with her encouragement, I did and will be attending HBS in the Fall. I applied to 9 business schools in total, including several M7 programs, and had a perfect acceptance rate. She is humble and won't take recognition for that success rate, but I'll be the first to give her the lion's share of the credit.

Krista invested the time to thoroughly understand my background and professional achievements through an extensive brainstorming document. Be prepared to spend hours up front providing a comprehensive portrait of yourself for Krista to analyze and work her magic. This initial investment of time is crucial for her to created tailored guidance for each AdCom. Her friendly demeanor and positive attitude made our interactions a genuine partnership rather than a business transaction. You'll be hard-pressed to find a more supportive, caring, and candid MBA admission partner. I cannot recommend Krista enough for anyone who is seeking admission into their dream business school!
