About Fiona
I am a seasoned MBA and career coach with many years of background in strategy and management. I received my MBA from Wharton, and have spent six years at McKinsey and later joined internal strategy team at Capital One, Meta, NetApp and most recently fintech startup FalconX. I am also the founder of Rittenhouse MBA, a leading MBA and career coaching service specializing in helping individuals secure admissions to top MBA programs, prestigious management consulting firms like MBB (McKinsey, Bain, BCG) and leading tech companies. About MBA As an MBA coach, my approach is centered around helping you craft a compelling narrative and select the most impactful stories that will set you apart in your application essays. I understand that many students feel the urge to include everything they've accomplished, resulting in essays that lack focus and depth. My role is to guide you to dig deeper and uncover the essence of your experiences, allowing you to showcase your true self and unique qualities. Drawing from my experiences in assisting numerous students, I recognize the significance of a well-crafted narrative in making a lasting impression on admissions committees. Together, we'll identify the key themes and strengths that define your journey, ensuring that every aspect of your essay aligns with your overall story. By streamlining your content and focusing on the most relevant details, we'll create essays that leave a lasting impact and effectively communicate who you are and what you can bring to the MBA program. About Career Coach During my time at McKinsey and Meta, I have spent hundreds of hours interviewing candidates. Knowing the recruiting process end to end let me help my students better prepare for personal, product and case interviews. For personal interviews, my coaching style revolves around helping students craft authentic and impactful narratives that effectively communicate their unique strengths and experiences. In case interviews, I provide framework and practice cases, equipping students with the analytical and problem-solving skills necessary to excel. My ultimate goal is to empower you with long term skillsets to achieve your dreams. Let's work together to unlock your full potential and pave the way for your successful career journey.
Why do I coach?
I coach because I am deeply passionate about helping others unlock their true potential and achieve their aspirations. This desire to make a positive impact on people's lives began with my own experiences, where I found immense fulfillment in supporting and guiding family and friends towards their goals. Having been fortunate enough to receive invaluable coaching and mentorship during my journey to Wharton, McKinsey, and Meta, I believe in paying it forward and giving back to the community. Each pivotal step in my own career was made possible through the guidance and support I received, and I am committed to empowering others in a similar manner. Coaching allows me to combine my expertise with genuine empathy and encouragement, creating a powerful synergy that fosters growth, success, and transformation for those I have the privilege to work with.
