About Connie

Hi, I’m Connie, and I’m eager to be your trusted partner in MBA admissions, consulting case prep, and all things professional growth! Born and raised in Hong Kong, I’m currently pursuing my MBA at Harvard Business School (Class of 2026) after three incredible years at Bain & Company and completing my undergraduate education at Wharton (Class of 2020). Having personally navigated the challenging process of applying to top business schools from abroad, I’m deeply committed to helping you craft your unique story, overcome hurdles, and land your dream MBA offer. My background spans consulting, entrepreneurship (experience at two Series C startups), retail (Bain specialization), and social impact/sustainability (the foundation of my HBS application story). If your aspirations align with any of these areas, let’s connect - I’d love to help turn your vision into reality! Additionally, I’ve received offers from all MBB firms straight out of undergrad, and I’m excited to share my experience and proprietary casing tactics to help you break into consulting—a career I’m incredibly passionate about. While I’m relatively new to Leland, I’ve already guided 30+ friends and colleagues through MBA admissions and consulting case prep. I’ve also collaborated with seasoned admissions coaches (25+ years of experience) to hone my own applications, giving me a strong understanding of what it takes to craft a winning strategy. As a new member of the Leland community, I bring fresh energy and focus to help you uncover your unique story and navigate these processes with rigor and empathy—all at a fraction of the cost others charge! I’m committed to making our time together not only effective but also enjoyable. You’ll receive the candid, actionable feedback you need to improve while also feeling supported every step of the way. Let’s make your dream a reality - together! :)
