About Joseph

--- Top 15 coach on Leland -- I'm a current MBA student at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, formerly at McKinsey and JCPenney. I applied to the GSB three times before I got in, so I know what it takes to crack a top MBA program. Together, we can tackle your application and get you into your dream school. I was born in Texas and grew up in Guatemala. I started my journey at McKinsey & Company, where I aided clients through their toughest issues, all while actively leading the Southern BA Recruiting division and partaking in its resume and interview processes. While at McKinsey, I spent a year working at Generation Spain, a nonprofit dedicated to employing young adults through hard skill training. Afterwards, I worked as a Director of Special Projects at JCPenney, guiding the company through its most troubling times. I then founded and currently lead Remarca, a nonprofit that has provided career services including resume and interview training to 1,000+ Latinos. As a coach, I'll take a non-cookie cutter approach to your application, and will take the time to help you build a story that is uniquely yours. From your resume to your essays, I'll ensure that every piece of your application brings your best foot forward, reinforcing your strengths and emphasizing why your dream school needs you in their next class. Additionally, I was graciously offered full ride scholarships to attend Kellogg and Wharton and can help navigate the process to ensure you reach your fullest potential for merit awards. If you're reapplying to your dream school, or need help tying together a cohesive story of what makes you unique, I'm your guy.
