Ian’s MBA Qualifications
Welcome to my profile! I'm an MBA candidate at Kellogg School of Management (Northwestern), in the 1-Year program on a half scholarship. I was also admitted to Wharton / Lauder program on half scholarship (Joseph Wharton fellowship + Lauder fellowship) along with a full-tuition scholarship offer from Darden. Prior to pursuing my MBA, I spent 2 years as a Senior Associate at L.E.K. Consulting and two years as a Middle School Teacher with Teach For America Hawaii. Too many applicants try to figure out what the admissions committees want to hear and don't focus on their own story. I'd love to help you talk through how to bring your authentic story to life in a way that is interested and engaging to help you get offers and maybe some $$$ along with it!

About Ian
Hey there! I'm Ian. Born and raised in a farming community in central California. ☀️🚜🐄 BYU for undergrad. ⛰️⛷️🎓 Teach for America in Hawaii. 👨🏫🌺🌊 L.E.K. Consulting in Los Angeles. 🤝💼📊 And now I'm at Kellogg! ✈️🥶👨💼 I'm doing an MBA to expand my long-term opportunities, make tons of friends, and have an incredibly fun experience. Let's do an intro call! I'd love to learn about your story and how I might be able to help you reach your goals!
Why do I coach?
Selflessly, I find true meaning in helping others become their best selves. Selfishly, I want to expand my network through coaching some of the brightest minds of our generation (like you!). I really think we all have something to offer. Additionally, I learned a ton over the last few years as I researched which schools/programs were a good fit, prepped my applications, went through interviews, and lost sleep over some seriously awesome offers. I would love to take a few years of info and present it to you in a tailored way to help you reach your goals.
