About Gabrielle
Hello! I'm Gabrielle, a Harvard MBA Class of 2023 graduate with a passion for helping aspiring students reach their goals! My own MBA journey, as well as my diverse background spanning consumer goods, healthcare, and technology, have given me a breadth of experiences and knowledge to support and empower you. I began my career in consumer goods brand management at Newell Brands and Sanofi where I led $100M+ marketing campaigns that drove double-digit growth. I leveraged my MBA to successfully pivot to product management at Capital One. I have product experience across B2C early stage startups and B2B SaaS collaborating with cross-functional teams to launch revenue-generating products, leading discovery efforts which translated user insights into requirements, and making data-backed decisions to drive user and business value. Previous clients had varied backgrounds and earned admission to Harvard Business School, the Wharton School, and other M7s. I can help you identify target schools, hone your unique narrative, and tighten up your resume and essay. I am passionate about mentorship and am excited to help you achieve your goals!
Why do I coach?
MBA coaching is a passion of mine because I love helping individuals unlock their full potential and achieve their professional aspirations. Guidance from others has been critical in my success journey and I want to offer that same support and empowerment to others. I provide personalized strategies tailored to each client's unique strengths, aspirations, and challenges so that they can make informed decisions and take meaningful actions toward their goals. I am deeply committed to understanding each client's story, aspirations, and values in order to foster a trusted partnership built on mutual respect and accountability. Watching my clients flourish and navigate the complex admissions process with confidence and clarity is incredibly fulfilling for me.
