About Amy

Hi there! I'm Amy, and I come from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. I spent 12 years there, working closely with MBA students and supporting the admissions team. During my tenure at Wharton, I acted as a trusted adviser to prospective applicants as well as admitted and matriculated students. I conducted admissions chats with applicants early in the admissions process, administered interviews with hopeful students, read and reviewed completed applicant files, and also participated in admissions committee meetings. Additionally, I also represented the school at recruiting and welcome events. Prior to joining Wharton, I spent 5 years as a journalist, writing and editing for a number of mid-sized newspapers on both the East and West coasts. I earned my undergraduate degree in journalism from Penn State University and I also hold a Masters in Liberal Arts from the University of Pennsylvania. I was born and raised in Philadelphia but now call San Francisco home, where I live with my husband and two young children. If you really want to get me talking, ask about my passion for travel and visits to more than 40 countries on six continents!
