Jenn’s MBA Qualifications
As a graduate of Stanford GSB with an MBA and an MS in Electrical Engineering, and as the co-founder of Aineko, I bring extensive experience in both the technology and business realms. My journey from engineering to product and go-to-market leadership has endowed me with a unique interdisciplinary perspective, which I leverage to help my clients achieve success. I have effectively coached three international and US individuals through the MBA application process, assisting them in crafting compelling narratives and navigating the complexities of admissions. If you're seeking strategic guidance and a holistic approach to your MBA application, let's connect and turn your aspirations into reality!"

Why do I coach?
I coach because I understand the pain of navigating through a journey that is riddled with information asymmetry. I've ventured into many unknowns and along the way have mapped systems and people that can place people in positions to have agency in decisions and succeed. With my coaching you'll understand the language, opportunities, and perspectives that is required in wading through the opaque processes and confusing landscapes.
